Prepare yourselves for the first big indie nerdgasm of '08, coming up Tuesday: Michel Gondry (that's one) will be at the Apple Store (that's two) discussing his upcoming film Be Kind, Rewind (three), about video-store clerks (four) played by Jack Black and Mos Def (five), who accidentally erase but then remake the videos they rent out (aaaand new pants).

Sadly, the event doesn't include a screening, but Gondry will be showing clips, and Time Out Chicago film critic Ben Kenigsberg will be moderating a discussion. The event is free, first come first serve, and starts at 7pm at the Michigan Ave Apple Store.
