Short description
A man whose brain becomes magnetized unintentionally destroys every tape in his friend's video store. In order to satisfy the store's most loyal renter, an aging woman with signs of dementia, the two men set out to remake the lost films.

What's left behind the scenes

  • In the film 'King Kong' (2005), Jack Black's character was a director filming a movie about King Kong. In 'Rewind,' Jack Black's character is filming the film 'King Kong' itself (or rather, its 'Swedish version').
  • The filmmakers did not have the rights to use the song from Ivan Reitman's (1946-2022) comedy “Ghostbusters” (1984) as performed by Ray Parker Jr., so Jack Black’s character performed his own version of the song.
  • Director and screenwriter Michel Gondry insisted on casting residents of Passaic, New Jersey, in supporting roles, as filming took place there.
  • In the film "King Kong" (2005), Jack Black's character was a director filming a movie about King Kong. In "Rewind," Jack Black's character is already filming the movie "King Kong" (specifically, its "Swedish version").
