BlogLive@Sundance 2008 Podcast: Be Kind, Rewind Director Michel Gondry

French director Michel Gondry, the force behind 2004''s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, offers Sundance Film Festival-goers a much differently offbeat piece this year with Be Kind, Rewind. Gondry collaborated with cinematographer Ellen Kuras and others to manufacture the story of some well-intentioned goofballs trying to help a dying urban video rental store survive by simplistically remaking onto VHS tape many of the movies in the store''s library. The aesthetic approach to making those faux movies, and the technical challenges involved were quite extensive. Gondry recently discussed these issues with millimeter Senior Editor Michael Goldman. Check out the January/February issue of millimeter for a feature article on the making of Be Kind, Rewind. To listen, click here
