The Jonze DVD is surely the prize of the bunch. For the first time, the “Adaptation” director’s hilarious, high-concept videos–including his man-on-fire clip for Wax’s “California,” the guerrilla galleria dance show for Fatboy Slim’s “Praise You” and, of course, the coolest video ever made, Christopher Walken’s soft-shoe showstopper for “Weapon of Choice”–are gathered in one place. But the true grace of the series is the spotlight it shines on the two less heralded, but no less talented, mavericks. You might never see a creepier five minutes of film than Cunningham’s video for Aphex Twin’s “Come to Daddy,” and the hit British zombie flick “28 Days Later”–with its snatching, wall-eyed killers–owes a clear debt to his “Afrika Shox” clip for Leftfield. Then there’s France’s Gondry, who’s now finishing up a Jim Carrey movie. Buy his DVD, and brag to your pals that you knew about him back when he was blowing minds with Bjork videos.
