TEXT:Spoilers

Well, the one line summary says it all. Melville's "Le samurai" is the original and there are elements of "Leon". And they are better - much better!

In the "Samurai" Alain Delon is a lonely warrior / professional killer who keeps a bird in cage and is stealing cars for his jobs (with so much suspense in these scenes!). Even the end is exactly the same: the samurai seeks death in dignity and is getting shot with an empty gun in his hand. The world has changed he realizes and there is no place for the samurai in it.

Delon is not killing so many people like the Ghost dog. But I guess Jarmusch liked "Leon" very much or even "Desperado" by Rodriguez. So he added this, too. And let me guess: the girl will become a professional like Ghost dog (like Natalie Portman in "Leon")?

So what was Jarmusch thinking after all? Where is the unique, the original thought in this movie?

I can't see the point in making carbon (celluloid) copies.
