Be Kind Rewind


Filming is currently underway for Michel Gondry's latest forward march into the relatively obscure and delightful, Be kind Rewind. After The Science of Sleep, it seems that although maintaining his slightly off the wall premise, Gondry is going to tone it down just a tad. Jack Black will star, which, after Nacho Libre, (a film which grossly underused Blacks comedic abilities) holds great promise given the films premise.
A man (Black) whose brain becomes magnetized unintentionally destroys every tape in his friend's video store. In order to satisfy the store's most loyal renter, an aging woman with signs of dementia, the two men set out to remake the lost films, which include Back to the Future, The Lion King, and Robocop.

*SHH! You had me at "Magnetized"...*

Something about this idea really does stir memories of being a kid jumping around with a big stick pretending I was Luke Skywalker and making all sorts of strange noises!

Some stills of Black filming have been leeked onto the net, which one can only assume are part of the "re-shoots" the characters do in the film. Cast your beedy eyes over them HERE, HERE, HERE, oh and ummm... HERE

"MARTY!!!"
