Be Kind Rewind

No upcoming showtimes scheduled.
Director: Michel Gondry
2008 / 102min / 35mm

Gondry’s goofy, giddy homage to backyard moviemaking begins with Jack Black’s cock-eyed dreamer Jerry, zapped and magnetized during a caper at the local power station, accidentally erasing all the VHS stock at the Passaic, New Jersey, video store run by his buddy Mike (Mos Def)—and only gets wilder from there, as the two pals scramble to produce homemade remakes of the missing titles. A charming, at times Capra-esque film in love with the possibilities of grassroots ingenuity, amateur enthusiasm, and community.
