Paterson is a bus driver in the eponymous city of Paterson, New Jersey. Every day he drives his route, observing the city as it drifts across his windshield. He writes his poetry, walks his dog, stops in a bar for his daily beer, then goes home to Laura. Jarmusch quietly observes the triumphs and defeats of daily life, along with the poetry of its smallest details. “His latest film takes its good, sweet time working its way into your mind and heart. But when it does, you're a goner.” - Rolling Stone.
