Yesterday whilst listing a sampling of my current favorite music I
unaccountably forget Niel Young's soundtrack for my favorite movie of
1996, Jarmusch's _Dead Man_ starring Johnny Depp and Wm. Blake's words,
with an interesting assortment of players, many in walk-ons (e.g., Iggy
Pop, Crispin Glover, John Hurt, Robert Mitchum).  The costar Nobody was
another great performance but unfortunately I don't know the actor's name.


Nobody was played by Gary Farmer whom Jarmusch had seen in a little known
Canadian film, Powwow Highway and was so impressed with Farmer's work that he
wrote the role of Nobody specifically for Farmer.
