Down by Law (1986)

R (US) | West Germany, USA | English, Italian, French | 107 min
Directed by: Jim Jarmusch
7.7

DJ Zack and pimp Jack end up in prison for being too laid-back to avoid being framed for crimes they didn't commit. They end up sharing a cell with eccentric Italian optimist Roberto, whose limited command of the English language is both entertaining and infuriating. More useful to them is the fact that Roberto knows an escape route.
