Those after plot / unambiguity may hate it, but let it's jazzy feel carry you amd you might just dig it... maybe

In iconic writer / director Jim Jarmusch's gently downbeat 2005 drama "Broken Flowers" Bill Murray's an aging lothario who on being dumped by latest squeeze Julie Delph recieves a mystery letter telling him he had a son 20yrs ago. Pushed by friend & neighbor Jeffrey Wright (good) he embarks on a road / plane trip (with a soft jazzy soundtrack) to re-visit old-flames Sharon Stone, Jessica Lange (both beautiful), Tilda Swinton, & Frances Conroy - in the hope of identifying the 'mum'. Those craving 'plot' (and an unambiguous ending) will be sorely disappointed, but those willing to let the 'feel' of it float over them (meaninglessly or not) may dig this one. Quirky.
