Titre: Rewind And Play Format: DVD Condition: Neuf Nombre de disques: 1 Acteurs: Motherless Brooklyn (Original Motion Picture Soundtrac, Thelonious Monk Directeur: Alain Gomis Durée: 1 hour and 5 minutes Region Code: DVD zone 1 Marque: Grasshopper Film Langue des sous-titres: Anglais Classification: MPAA Not Rated Description: PRODUCT DESCRIPTION In December 1969, legendary jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk ended his European concert tour with a performance at the Salle Pleyel in Paris. Before the show, he was invited to appear on a French television program to perform and answer questions in an intimate setting. Using newly discovered footage from this recording, director Alain Gomis (FÉLICITÉ) reveals the disconnect between Monk and his interviewer, Henri Renaud, whose unwittingly trivializing approach conveys the casual racism and exploitation prevalent in the music industry at large. A fascinating behind-the-scenes documentary with extraordinary rarely-seen performances, REWIND & PLAY offers a unique opportunity to see Monk in a way that very few people did.
REVIEW "Rewind & Play dazzles! A gleaming portrait of Monk at work.” --Lisa Kennedy, The New York Times
"A minor masterwork of historical investigation and a fervent tribute to the epochally great musician... Monk’s solo performances [are] spectacular." --Richard Brody, The New Yorker
"With Gomis’s arrangement of footage, viewers bear witness to Monk as he subtly challenges his interlocutor... and ultimately Monk’s effortlessly innovative compositions." --Anthony Hawley, Hyperallergic
