Be Kind Rewind, the latest high-concept movie America won't get



Look, Michel Gondry movies - Human Nature, Eternal Sunshine and The Science of Sleep among them - are an acquired taste. We eat the shit out of them, so to speak. And his latest, Be Kind Rewind, with Jack Black and Mos Def, looks nothing short of brilliant. Brilliant because, if you've seen a Gondry film, it will end up nothing like the trailer and philistines will jeer that they didn't get what they thought they were getting.

What you're getting is art, isn't that enough?
