The Greatest Young Director?

The film that I've anticipated most this year is about to open on Friday...The Science of Sleep.

Michel Gondry's films and videos show the true vision of a genius. What's most incredible is that a lot of his visual trickery is not computer based, but done all in camera. Whenever I see his films, I am constantly in awe of his creativity and individuality.

Unlike the much other directors that Michel is sometimes clumped in with (Sophia Coppola, Wes Anderson etc...), Gondry brings his A-Game, and is constantly pushing boundaries.

The Times had a great profile of him on the weekend. If you don't read the stuff I usually post, this is one time to finally click on the link.
