Cert:15 Year: 2016 Length:113mins
Country:USA
Described as "perhaps the most purely pleasurable film at Cannes" Paterson is the eponymous bus driver cum poet, who takes his inspiration from the conversations of his passengers and his day to day life in Paterson, New Jersey. Adam Driver is superb as the poet and he is wonderfully supported by Golshifteh Farahani (About Ellie) as his wife Laura, who has (largely black and white) artistic ideas of her own and Winnie the bulldog, rightful winner of the Palme Dog.

Critics

“A perfectly constructed, beautifully acted and utterly charming indie drama that will make you see the world around you in a different way. It is, in a word, unmissable.”
