Last day to signup/drop:May 31, 2008

Number of swap partners:1
Description:

This swap is for anyone who has fallen head-first into the world that Michel Gondry has created with his movies such as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Science of Sleep, and his newest: Be Kind, Rewind (ok, others too, but they're pretty obscure and mostly foreign).

For this swap, you will send your partner 3 or more items that relate to any of Michel Gondry's films--try to aim for one larger item such as a project a la Clementine, Joel, Stephane or Stephanie (a feltie, a magical quilt, a time machine (?), a potato person, or whatever your little heart desires) and then some smaller items that could include a soundtrack, a letter explaining your favorite parts of a film, things your favorite characters would buy for their significant others, etc.

I stole this idea from Harold8Maude (thanks--you're awesome!) and I loved her stipulation that you MUST INCLUDE at least one quote from any of his films.

And: this should go without saying, but this is for serious swappers who put thought and care into their packages.

Requirements: No recent NO SENDS, Must have a rating of 4.5 or better, Swap is International, Newbies are welcome with filled out profiles and ratings from at least 5 swaps.

Message me with any questions.

Aww, I haven't seen Be Kind, Rewind yet. It's not out on dvd 'til June 17. :(

BKR is good, but definitely not as good as the other two mentioned... jack black does bring an element of goofy to the typically dramatic work of M.G.

Ugh. I really hate to do so, b/c I was so looking forward to this, but I'm gonna have to drop from this swap. :( :( I just know I won't be able to get it finished in the two weeks allotted, and I don't like making my partners wait. :/ I'm thinking I might start a swap similar to this just for The Science Of Sleep when I know I'll have time for it. Not sure when that will be though...
