The film “Paterson” follows the life of a NJ Transit driver named Paterson in the city of Paterson. Each day begins much the same – Paterson rises early to go to work listening to passengers and jotting down poetry during breaks. After work, he walks his dog Marvin and visits Shades Bar for a beer, where he engages with the regulars.
Paterson’s wife, Laura, is his biggest fan, appreciating and encouraging his poetry. She urges him to share his work with the world, but Paterson hesitates.
One weekend, after a movie outing, Paterson discovers that Marvin has destroyed his notebook containing all his poems. Devastated, Paterson is at a loss.
