More Flavor: Discussion indieWIRE presents Michel Gondry

 

Visionary French filmmaker Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Science of Sleep) discusses the distinct aesthetic — a blend of camera trickery, old-school special effects, and animation — that makes him one of the most playful and innovative directors in contemporary cinema. This talk also features clips from Gondry's new film, Be Kind Rewind, in which Jerry (Jack Black) receives an electric shock that makes him accidentally erase all the videos at the store where his friend Mike (Mos Def) works. In an effort to save the store, the two re-create each lost movie — from Robocop to The Lion King themselves.
