Derrida (DVD)
Directed by Amy Ziering Kofman and Kirby Dick
One of the most influential and iconoclastic figures of the 20th century, French philosopher and father of "deconstruction" Jacques Derrida has single-handedly altered the way we look at history, language, art and film. In the spirit of Derrida's work, acclaimed filmmakers Kirby Dick (SICK: THE LIFE AND DEATH OF BOB FLANAGAN, SUPERMASOCHIST) and Amy Ziering Kofman have created an innovative and entertaining portrait by questioning the very concept of biography itself. Featuring a mesmerizing score by Oscar-winning composer Ryuichi Sakamoto (THE LAST EMPEROR), DERRIDA is a playful and provocative glimpse at a visionary thinker as he ruminates on everything from SEINFELD to the sex lives of ancient philosophers.
Also available on DVD as part of the 6-film GREAT MINDS box set.
DVD Extras Include:
-Audio commentary by the filmmakers
-Almost one hour of never-before-seen interviews with Jacques Derrida
-Deleted scenes, with filmmaker commentary
-Derrida on DERRIDA: Q&A with Jacques Derrida and the filmmakers at the New York premiere
-Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hearing impaired
