Jim Jarmusch’s Only Lovers Left Alive gets new clips and photos

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Jim Jarmusch’s ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE is currently at the Cannes Film Festival, hence we’re finally going to start seeing more goods from the unusual vampire love story. The film stars Tom Hiddleston, Tilda Swinton, Mia Wasikowska, John Hurt and Anton Yelchin and looks to (pardon the overused pun) inject new blood into a fairly dried-up genre.

Today we’ve got some new photos from the film, as well as a couple of promo posters and two clips. Said clips don’t show us anything in the way of vampire action; instead, they focus on the strange, somber atmosphere that apparently envelops the movie.

Set against the romantic desolation of Detroit and Tangier, an underground musician, deeply depressed by the direction of human activities, reunites with his resilient and enigmatic lover. Their love story has already endured several centuries at least, but their debauched idyll is soon disrupted by her wild and uncontrollable younger sister. Can these wise but fragile outsiders continue to survive as the modern world collapses around them?

Both clips are combined in the one video below. ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE does not have a US release date yet.
