Cannes Film Festival, 2008: “Tokyo!” (Gondry/Carax/Bong, Japan)

Critics reviews

Michel Gondry is best known for his 2004 breakthrough comedy feature, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind; Leos Carax for the 1991 Les Amants du Pont-Neuf; and Bong Joon-Ho for the 2006 Korean monster film The Host. The cumulative strangeness of Tokyo! is consistent with the previous eccentricities of the three directors, and is well worth the time of any moviegoer looking for something different in their movie diet.
