Adam Driver has been earning raves on the film-festival circuit for his simple, quiet portrayal of a blue-collar Paterson, New Jersey, bus driver named Paterson in Paterson (a true trifecta!), where his days are routinely spent driving, spending time with his wife, and walking his English bulldog. Written and directed by Jim Jarmusch, Paterson (the man) also takes delight in getting one beer at the local bar every evening and writing observational poetry in his notebook whenever he can. Will his wife convince him to publish his good prose for the world to see? Who knows! Also starring Golshifteh Farahani and the teens from Moonrise Kingdom, the film will be released on December 28.
