DVD - Dave Chappelle's
Block Party
A genuine crowd-pleaser, Dave Chappelle’s Block Party spotlights
comedy superstar Dave Chappelle as he presents a Brooklyn neighborhood
with its very own once-in-a-lifetime free block party. The unprecedented
combination of comedy and music was shot on location. In addition
to Mr. Chappelle performing all-new material, the stellar roster
of artists includes Kanye West, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Common, Dead
Prez, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, the Roots, Cody ChesnuTT, Big Daddy
Kane, and – reunited for their first performance in over seven years
– the Fugees.
Academy Award-winning filmmaker Michel Gondry and his Eternal Sunshine
of the Spotless Mind cinematographer Ellen Kuras capture all of
the exclusive performances and crowd excitement on an unforgettable
Saturday afternoon and night, as well as (earlier in the week) private
rehearsals footage and Mr. Chappelle in the small Ohio town he calls
home.
In Ohio, Mr. Chappelle wandered through town handing out golden
tickets to invite several dozen citizens to join the party, providing
transportation and lodging for their first-time-ever visit to Brooklyn.
Ohio’s Central State University marching band made the trip and
helped kick off the festivities at the intersection of Quincy and
Downing Streets. As a diverse crowd comes together, Mr. Chappelle’s
freestyle wit guides them (and us) through a day-long, life-affirming
celebration of music and comedy, history and community.
The lineup of performers is distinguished not only by the caliber
of their music but also by the strength and power that their art
draws from keeping their creativity pure. Offering moviegoers front-row
seats at a unique entertainment and communal experience, Dave Chappelle’s
Block Party showcases how vital and vibrant music and humor can
unite us and help transcend our turbulent times.
