Things To Take To Heart

From Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai quoting Hagakure: The Way of the Samurai by Yamamoto Tsunetomo:

"Matters of great concern should be treated lightly." Master Ittei commented, "Matters of small concern should be treated seriously."

I don't knot why it took me so long to watch this film, I loved it. What a gangster movie should be. Every time I watch a Jarmusch film it makes me look at the world a little bit more closer, even when the film was a bit of dud (Broken Flowers I'm looking at you). It's like hitting the pause button to focus on something very beautiful/unexpected. It's rare when a film has that effect.
