Michel Gondry is truly a genius, as inventive a video artist can get. I always saw him as a child in an adult body, and that’s a compliment because only children can come up with such vivid imagination while exploring their world. But somehow, when we grow up, we loose that instant creativity, the kind of naive curiosity that drives children to filter Reality. Life simply gets the best out of us with its endless routine and repetitive patterns. How many times do you get to see some old cartoons you adored when you were little, and somehow you get disappointed and tell yourself “It sucks!” - Pvt Joker, IMDB

Where can I find information about The Work Of Director Michel Gondry Michel Gondry

French-born Michel Gondry is known for his visually groundbreaking imagery and re-interpretations of reality. A former drummer, his first collaboration with Björk for “Human Behaviour” (featuring Björk as a hunter who eventually winds up inside a bear’s stomach), helped revive what was then a dwindling music video industry, and went on to win nearly every music video award. The project sparked a creative relationship between Gondry and Bjork, which led to five more videos. Gondry has also directed the Rolling Stones’ “Like A Rolling Stone,” Beck’s “Deadweight” (set in a world in which everything is reversed); and Radiohead’s “Knives Out” (featuring a life-size version of the Operation board game where Thom Yorke and his “girlfriend” play out the demise of their relationship), as well as videos for the Chemical Brothers, the White Stripes, Daft Punk, and the Foo Fighters amongst others.
