Michel Gondry: A Cinephile's Labyrinth
The Acclaimed Director Gives Us an Insider's Glimpse of His Favorite Video Store
Michel Gondry takes us on a tour of his local Parisian haunt in A Cinephile’s Labyrinth, a new work directed by Larry Clark alumna, actress and filmmaker Tiffany Limos. The Academy Award-winning director reminisces on time spent wandering the aisles of La Butte Video Club, the small VHS and DVD store to which he has made pilgrimages over the years. “I watched all the early Wim Wenders films from La Butte when I was preparing for The Science of Sleep,” says Gondry of this old school answer to Netflix. In his forthcoming L’Écume des Jours (Mood Indigo), the French auteur adapts Boris Vian’s 1947 cult novel of the same name—a satirical story of young love set in jazz-infused Paris. “I tried to avoid ‘Rive Gauche’ clichés,” he says of the upcoming feature, “but I used the music of Duke Ellington.” Similarly, La Butte is a relic of Paris’ past and one that continues to inspire—not just during the making of 2008’s homage to video, Be Kind Rewind, but in providing the director with regular interaction with other film lovers. “Out of all the directors I work with, Michel is the most fun,” muses Limos. “He makes me laugh out loud constantly.” Here Gondry reveals just how important his encounters in the video aisle have been to his acclaimed oeuvre.
Was the video store a big part of your early experience with film?
Michel Gondry: We had a video player at home since the early 80s so the video process was part of my adolescence. I used to shoot little sketches with my brothers and our friends. Sadly, I don’t think there are many places like La Butte left where I live in Brooklyn.
Do you ever think about whether your film will end up on the shelves of somewhere like La Butte when you are making it?
MG: Yes. In fact it’s one of the reasons why we as filmmakers have to define the genre that we want our film to belong to. We know that people will put them on specific shelves. It doesn’t make things easy when your genre is not well defined.
Have these films also influenced your collaborations with other artists, such as the musicians for whom you’ve made music videos?
MG: Yes, sure. I remember the first time I collaborated with Björk—we discussed all our favorite movies. We discovered that we had lots of favorite films in common. Like The Night of the Hunter (1955) for instance, which became an inspiration for the video for [her 1993 single] “Human Behaviour.”
Do you still watch films as much as you used to before you began making them?
MG: I don’t see them the same way. Unfortunately, I can’t take myself out of the equation. Most of the time I’m watching a movie, I’m thinking, “I could never achieve this!”
Your latest adaptation takes on a work of satire. Is it important to have a sense of humor in filmmaking today?
MG: Humor helps to swallow the harshness of life.

Boardwalk Empire Premiere
(click on photo to enlarge)
I went to see Michael Pitt at this premiere. Nelson George and I took this great photo at their photobooth! It was a wonderful night. Everyone was there. (Pharrell, Scorsese, Schrader, all the usual suspects) I do want to say that I've known Michael Pitt since we were teenagers and it was so great to see him on a series like Boardwalk Empire... CONGRATS!

The DDD Magazine Spread
(Updated March 14, 2014) I've known Larry Clark since the 90's. If you don't know about Mr. Clark then go do your homework. Clark inspired and influenced Scorsese, Coppola, Van Sant, and MANY MANY MANY artists in the world! Ingrid Sischy has said that Clark influenced the last 50 years of FASHION photography! (from Helmut Newton to Mario Sorrenti to Mario Testino to Nick Knight to Terry Richardson - they all claimed Larry Clark as their IDOL!) And for all you Photography GEEKS out there, you already know what I am talking about! For the CINEPHILES, the TRUE CINEPHILES you already know Clark is a GOD in cinema. For the FASHION HEADS, Clark influenced Calvin Klein, Marc Jacobs, Raf Simons, and the list goes on... for MUSIC HEADS... Clark influenced Lou Reed, Keith Richards, Tyler the CREATOR, and MANY MANY OTHERS! Larry's art has been collected by some of the richest, most powerful, and influential people in the world! People have paid in the millions for Larry's photos and some of the photos Larry has taken of me go for at least 20k to 50k.
Please don't even try to talk to me about photography, cinema, music, and let alone Larry Clark if you haven't done your homework. I've studied photography history, cinema history, music history, art history... and I know what I am talking about here.
LARRY CLARK WILL GO DOWN AS ONE OF THE WORLD'S PIONEERS WHETHER YOU ACKNOWLEDGE IT OR NOT... (and some of you may be wondering why I am ranting about this or going on a tangent.. because I'm annoyed of people approaching me with stupid questions regarding Larry Clark when they have no clue about Larry's body of work and about Larry's status in world/international art! And I will challenge anyone of you in person about Larry Clark's work and where it stands in the world. TRY ME. You tell me what other artist made a seminal book at 21 years old call Tulsa and at 71 is still making movies that are winning top prizes at film festivals? Larry Clark's book Tulsa is one of the art pieces that changed the outlook on cinema, photography, art, and music forever... I challenge anyone else to tell me different. All the names I listed above have been influenced by Larry Clark and there are more names where that came from. All the cinematographers that were influenced by Larry Clark like Chris Doyle Mark Ping Bin Lee... and other legends in photography such as Nan Goldin... no one can touch Larry Clark... I know you want to hate on Larry, be my guest, and his body of work will stand on its own... and as Larry says, "The Legends will stand!"
Like I said... any of you morons who seriously think Larry ain't shit, well... ha ha ha... think again. Knowledge is power and I suggest you read up about him... but as Larry says... Haters need a damn job. :) If you have no clue about art history, don't bother talking about Larry Clark... because you'll just make yourself look like a damn fool.

Claudia's dish

Paul's dish

My dish!

Sorbets, macaroons, and sitting next to Suchin Pak at the benches... we decided to split! Claudia drove and along the way I realized the Yohji store wasn't there anymore! This was in its place!

WOW! That's saying alot. Congrats to Alexander Wang.
We finally arrive to Brooklyn after massive traffic and detours. Here's Editor-In-Chief of The DDD Magazine, MAYA CONTRERAS with featured artist in The DDD, Paul Gondry!

Maya was pretty swamped and had to jet. Claudia, Paul, and I decided to go to Paul's house near White Castle. HA! (inside joke for Quark Henares)
Here are some DDD magazine's on the Gondry's coffee table!

Claudia relaxing...

My homeboy for life... Paul Gondry.

I had a beer and Claudia and I decided to leave the house and head back into the city. I fell asleep. I went outside and saw Terrence Jennings of all people AND Nelson George. My cousin Jean Grae came to meet me and we walked all over the city for a few hours catching up on life. It was a blast to see her and to finally not be trying to play phone tag with her. CVS had my prescription - so happy to have some medicines for this cold. I cannot take one more day of it!
Had an interesting day... went to sleep.

DEDON Celebrates New York at NOUVEL CHELSEA
September 15, 2010


I'd been feeling the pressure of the DDD magazine launch, that the next day I got really sick. Patrick McMullan told me he was stopping by the Bruce Weber hosted party and of course, I had to see BRUCE! Feeling under the weather and not really wanting to be seen, I went without makeup and with my hair down. I threw on a Zac Posen dress and Serpico coat, hoping that it would be good enough. I headed out on the town with Claudia Wu in tow, along with Melissa Serpico. Thank goodness the only place I was photographed was at the Dedon/Bruce Weber event. Right after we hit Le Bain for Jeremy Scott's afterparty... it was a blast. Melissa had to head home to catch a flight the next day. Claudia and I tried to catch the Last Magazine's party but it was over capacity. I drank one last beer at Ara and had to head home. I was feeling under the weather. Day 1 of feeling under the weather.
What a week its been for me in New York!
