- I picked up this video the other day. It's Russian
- from 1991. The plot involves a hard working stoic
- taxi driver and his somewhat troubled relationship
- with a Sax player who is "... a genius!" (a drunk
- one). The cabbie gets stiffed by this guy then
- finds him can't get his money, takes the sax ...
- and things go on from their. The cabbie has a hard
- time understanding that the Drunk Sax player is a
- Drunk Sax player. Kinda reminds me of Jim Jarmusch
- but maybe that was just the Taxi's.
-
- Mo says check it out.
