            It has been widely regarded since Paterson was first shown at Cannes that it is one of the best indies of the year. Luckily, today we received our first trailer for the latest film from art house director, Jim Jarmusch.

            Adam Driver plays the titular character, a bus driver in Paterson, New Jersey (ironically enough) who seems content living his life with his daily routine. He does his job around the city, writes poetry, walks his dog, has a beer and then heads to bed. His wife, Laura, played by Goldshifteh Farahani, is quite the opposite as she lives throughout her dreams and projects. Jarmusch observes a week in the lives of the couple and it seems to create something special in the meantime. The trailer really seems to grasp the serenity and calmness of the film and I’m very excited to see it.

            Watch the trailer for Paterson below. The movie will be in theaters on December 28^th and Amazon not far after.
