"Director Jim Jarmusch followed up his brilliant breakout film Stranger than paradise with another, equally beloved portrait of loners and misfits in the American landscape. When fate brings together three hapless men, an unemployed disc jockey (Tom Waits), a small-time pimp (John Lurie), and a strong-willed Italian tourist (Roberto Benigni), in a Louisiana prison, a singular adventure ensues. Described by Jarmusch as a neo-Beat noir comedy, Down by law is part nightmare and part fairy tale, featuring sterling performances and crisp black-and-white cinematography by the esteemed Robby Möller."
"Drei Männer landen unabhängig voneinander in ein- und derselben Gefängniszelle in New Orleans: Zack, ein arbeitsloser DJ, sitzt unschuldig wegen Mordes. Das Großmaul Jack, ein Zuhälter, wurde von einem seiner Kumpels hereingelegt. Und Roberto, der italienische Tourist, brachte beim Billardspielen versehentlich jemanden mit einer Kugel um. Zack und Jack hassen sich auf Anhieb. Nur in einem sind sie sich einig: Sie können Roberto nicht ausstehen. Dessen naiver Optimimus und sein schreckliches Englisch sind nervtötend. Doch gerade Roberto ist es, der per Zufall eine Fluchtmöglichkeit entdeckt, und so zögern Jack und Zack keine Sekunde und brechen zusammen mit ihm aus. Gemeinsam flieht das Trio nun durch die Sümpfe von Louisiana. Der Sheriff mit seinem Suchtrupp ist ihnen allerdings dicht auf den Fersen."

"In einer Gefängniszelle werden ein desillusionierter Discjockey und ein großspuriger Zuhälter zu einer Notgemeinschaft gezwungen, die erst durch die Vermittlung eines warmherzigen italienischen Mitgefangenen erträglich wird. Auf der gemeinsamen Flucht durch die Sümpfe Louisianas lernen sie sich gegenseitig schätzen und achten. Eine ironische Komödie, die in märchenhafter Form von den Bemühungen um Menschlichkeit in einer desolaten Umwelt berichtet; hervorragend inszeniert und fotografiert, von glänzenden Darstellern getragen. (O.m.d.U.; Fernsehtitel: "Down by law - Alles im Griff")."
