los hijos de lee

Nosotros lo decíamos como un sueño guajiro: llegar a casa de tus padres con Tom Waits, Nick Cave e Iggy Pop, y decir "mamá, traje unos amigos a cenar".

Parece que Jarmusch tuvo esa idea mucho antes, y la llevó a la práctica.

A secret organization exists called The Sons of Lee Marvin - it includes myself, Tom Waits, John Lurie, and Richard Bose. We’re initiating Nick Cave into it too. There are many honorary members too. I have a good story about it. Six months ago Tom Waits was in a bar in somewhere like Sonoma County in Northern California, and the bartender said, ”You’re Tom Waits, right? A guy over there wants to talk to you.” Tom went over to this dark corner booth and the guy sitting there said, ”Sit down, I want to talk to you.” So Tom started getting a little aggressive: ”What the fuck do you want to talk to me about? I don’t know you.” And the guy said, ”What is this bullshit about the Sons of Lee Marvin?” Tom said, ”Well, it’s a secret organization and I’m not supposed to talk about it.” The guy said, ”I don’t like it.” Tom said, ”What’s it to you?” The guy said, ”I’m Lee Marvin’s son” - and he really was. He thought it was insulting, but it’s not, it’s completely out of respect for Lee Marvin. Jim Jarmusch's Guilty Pleasures. Film Comment, May-June, 1992, pp 35-37.

La lista completa incluye a Iggy, Thurston Moore y Neil Young. Pura joya.
