Interview with Michel Gondry on his new movie, Be Kind Rewind.

I hate cynicism. I wipe it from me. I don't like cynical people. I don't like cynical movies. Cynicism is very easy. You don't have to justify it. You don't have to fight for it.

Gondry also did a hilarious remake of the film's original trailer.

Update: Maybe Gondry got the premise for the movie from an old Nickelodeon show called Amanda, Please! Or not.
