It is airing tonight at 10.00pm on SBS. My attention was captured when I read the synopsis!
Ghost Dog is a hit-man, loyal to an American mobster who once saved his life, who lives in a dismal rooftop shack, and leads a meticulously ordered existence that is defined and regulated by The Book of the Surai. He has two friends, a French West-Indian ice cre truck owner who doesn't understand a word of English and a little black girl, Pearline, who shares his passion for reading. Every day he sends his carrier pigeon to old Louie to check if a contract awaits him. A contract arrives to shoot the old lover of a mafia boss's precious daughter. But because the daughter witnesses the murder, the mob wants Ghost Dog dead too.
Director: Jim Jarmusch
Cast: Forest Whitaker, John Tormey
It was released all the way back in 1999 so has anyone here seen it? What do you think of it?
I await with anticipation :thumbsu:
