This week on Alcohollywood, we start Mystery Month, where all the movies have 'mystery' in the title! Starting off, we talk about 1989's Jim Jarmusch film Mystery Train, a strange and hip anthology film featuring three stories of people (both native and tourist) navigating Memphis, Tennessee on the same night.

From a disaffected young Japanese couple seeking the home of rock stars, to a lost Italian woman trying to find her way, to a trio of locals out on a night of crime, the movie is an exercise in effortless meanderings. Throughout, Jim Jarmusch's underplayed style out in full force, along with a great rock 'n roll soundtrack. Musicians like Joe Strummer and Screamin' Jay Hawkins interact with great character actors (Steve Buscemi, Rick Aviles) to create a weird soup of rock history homage and quirky character study.
