Title: Michel Gondry
Post by: deftonekid on Oct 14, 2008, 03:53 AM
Does anybody think this guy is highly talented? I love his movies and a lot of his videos.

"Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" is one of my favorite movies ever and I just watched his new movie "Be Kind, Rewind" and it is very original and funny. Also one of my favorite videos of all times is the one he directed for Cibo Matto "Sugar Water". Just a talented mofo I think.

Discuss.

Eternal Sunshine is one of my all-time favorites

well I was expecting a better movie yes, but you can't deny it's amazing what he can do with a camera, love the dumb-ish fx's he did for this film, not his best work true.
