Experience the antics of two outcasts, Jack Black (School of Rock) and Mos Def (The Italian Job), as they attempt to save the local video store in Be Kind Rewind, an outrageous and offbeat comedy from Academy Award®-winning* writer/director Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind). Amateur film director Mike (Def) must find a way to save the business after his magnetized friend, Jerry (Black), erases every movie in the store. Using an outdated video camera and their own special effects, the two embark on an adventure to remake all of the movies, from Ghostbusters to Driving Miss Daisy, turning the two town misfits into local celebrities!
