The tale of two fragile and sensitive vampires, Adam (Tom Hiddleston) and Eve (Tilda Swinton), who have been lovers for centuries. Both are cultured intellectuals with an all-embracing passion for music, literature and science, who have evolved to a level where they no longer kill for sustenance, but still retain their innate wildness. Their love story has endured several centuries but their debauched idyll is threatened by the uninvited arrival of Eve’s carefree little sister Ava (Mia Wasikowska) who hasn’t yet learned to tame her wilder instincts. Driven by sensual photography, trance-like music, and droll humor, Jim Jarmusch’s Only Lovers Left Alive is a meditation on art, science, and the mysteries of everlasting love.

Critics Consensus: Worth watching for Tom Hiddleston and Tilda Swinton's performances alone, Only Lovers Left Alive finds writer-director Jim Jarmusch adding a typically offbeat entry to the vampire genre.

Keith & the Movies

Keith Garlington

It’s a slick, stylish, and moody character piece that doesn’t shy away from asking good questions and prodding reflection.

After settling into the unhurried reflections of Adam and Eve, the mellow film carries on with a pacing that's both bewitching and quietly absorbing

A sparkling script and charismatic cast injects a new burst of life into a genre that's become pallid and toothless...

An appetite for blood is exchanged for a lust of human culture. Written and instrumental, creators and sites of creation.

Don't expect too much plot - this is all about luxuriating in the picture, and sucking down every ounce of blood Jarmusch has drawn from his obsessions.
