Roberto Benigni..The Master killing it in Jarmusch's Down by Law

[@jackhackett80]

Benigni was much of this film. What a wonderful and heart-warming performance

[@ed_goblin]

I like how he's capable of both verbal and physical comedy, and also a good story teller.

[@AlonzoTheArmless]

My favorite Jarmusch film easily. John Lurie and Tom Waits look like they don't dare look at Roberto because they know they're going to burst out laughing. I don't know how they kept straight faces on this scene. I bet there were multiple takes that were ruined by laughter.

[@SamueleCastiglioni]

i quoted his line at a party and a girl recognized it, spent the following time talking about Jarmush

[@lasaboteuse]

my favorite part is the little satisfied chuckle after "not enough room to swing a cat"

[@Thejampacker]

I fucking love this scene! I couldn't stop laughing the first time I watched it. He is perfectly uncomfortable!

[@Rickydiculus]

I’m from Kentucky, living in Italy and my baby mamma Italiana wrote me other day that I’ll stay in italy behind bars. And I immediately thought of this scene. She wants to make me the inverse Roberto Benigni. I Ham a good egg. Call me Bob.

Incredible actor

[@dado2249]

Fin dal titolo "dawn by Law" si presenta come una riflessione sul linguaggio,sul suo utilizzo e sui fraintendimenti che si creano parlando lingue diverse. Film disseminato di incomprensioni e giochi di parole, Jarmusch ha deciso di distribuirlo all'estero soltanto a condizione che non venisse doppiato. Se la grandezza di "Stranger than Paradise" era quella di riuscire a dire grandi cose con un linguaggio semplice ed efficace , "Dawn by Law" si arricchisce, oltre che di una vena fiabesca e umoristica, anche di un'astrattezza che lo rende universale, fuori dal tempo. L'ottimismo di Bob si contrappone all'atteggiamento disilluso e pessimista di Jack e Zack, emblemi del tramonto del mito americano e interscambiabili nella visione dell'altro(che continua a confondere i loro nomi).

Roberto is a great and profound clown, up there with Chaplin and the Marx Bros.

[@michevicus2987]

In Italy we also had Totò (Antonio De Curtis) of that kind of actor.

[@pen6ra9]

jes jes it is. with john lurie & roberto benigni. a favorite of mine too.

[@lauettaspaspa91]

roberto benigni è un genio. davvero un genio. qui in Italia poche persone lo apprezzano come merita, d'altronde siamo rinomati come il paese dei deficienti! Io personalmente lo adoro, fin dalla mia infanzia mi ha fatto ridere e riflettere e commuovere con film come pinocchio o la vita e bella. è in grado di passare dal comico al drammatico al romantico in uno schiocco di dita. lo adoro!!

[@johnnyhedley3413]

Veramente

[@ritahorvath8207]

La vita e bella war eine grauenhafte Katastrophe mit der er sich komplett disqualifiziert hat.

[@brigidpark276]

We are both looking forward to seeing you there.

[@Ireland831]

[@agribman1]

not enough room to sing a cat....a cat...!

[@andygrenn680]

That’s the great Tom Waits…

[@nerijusignatavicius2525]

Maybe someone saw Benigni in the movie when he had a daughter who couldn't speak but later did. Maybe you know the name of this movie?

[@smackers1991]

What does Roberto say to the guards at the beginning?

[@smackers1991]

***** Ah thank you!

[@eshel724]

I ham Roberto😂

[@agribman1]

to swing a cat

[@Tetris66]

@andreacaccese yes

[@3rdwarddove]

lol it’s the buzzoff guy

[@moemonte88]

Just watched this on hbo and what a weird enjoyable movie. Every time I thought something was going to happen I was wrong.. first I thought jack was gonna shoot the hooker in beginning , and I thought Zack was gonna kill the Italian man when they first met. It’s a weird enjoyable movie.. I had to keep pausing it to see how much time was left because I didn’t want it to end. I really thought they were all gonna wake up back in jail!

[@darling_danke_schoen]

pffft!

[@aldomarchioni7719]

If this is your favorite, I can't imagine the rest ... I was looking for the full movie, but if this is the best scene, better if I watch something else.

[@maiajintcharadze7485]

Yeah, you better watch something else if you don't understand this kind of things

[@foljs5858]

Yes, better you watch something else. It's not for everybody. Try some Hollywood crap.

[@dirtyoldmano]

Yeah, better see Rick and Morti
