One of the year's best DVDs. It contains at least five all-out mini-masterpieces.
Not only for Spike Jonze fans but for anyone that wants to see Fatboy Slim taking a bath or anyone that wants to freeze-frame Madonna’s perpetual sour-puss.
The Work of Director Spike Jonze demystifies him. He's not a freak or a mad genius.
In this medium renowned for generic marketing integrity, Jonze’s work disenables such implicit dismissal.
