ABOUT THE MOVIE
DEAD MAN tracks a young man's Homeric odyssey through the nineteenth-century American West. Lost and badly wounded, William Blake (Johnny Depp) encounters an outcast Native American named "Nobody" (Gary Farmer). Contrary to Blake's nature, circumstances transform him into a hunted outlaw, a killer and a man whose physical existence is slowly slipping away. The story leads the two men through situations that are in turn comical and violent, which ultimately change their unlikely union into friendship.
DEAD MAN is written and directed by award-winning filmmaker Jim Jarmusch (Night on Earth, Mystery Train, Stranger Than Paradise) , with an internationally renowned cast and a score composed by Neil Young.
