December 1969, Thelonious Monk in Paris. Before his evening concert, he records a programme for French television.
The rushes show a Thelonious Monk who is in the grip of the violent factory of stereotypes from which he tries to escape.
The film becomes the crossing of this great artist, who would like to exist only for his music. And the portrait in hollow of a media machine as ridiculous as it is revolting.
Here is the machine in action. Deconstructing these rushes as phantasms. To see the factory of caricatures at work. Deaf, smiling, ambiguous, admiring and sickening. To hold the microphone without listening, to marvel without seeing.
Trying to overturn the point of view.
Here is Thelonious going through the ordeal, at work, as if he had landed on a strange planet, where a portrait is being made that he cannot do anything about. Tired by the years spent undergoing this painful exercise.
Fortunately, he plays, and in doing so, he makes more than anything else be said.
“It brings tears to my eyes when I see the shit that my father was going through” T.S Monk Jr.

确实是罕见影像，看Monk表演好享受，结尾静默画面我也有一些喜欢，但narrative全部依靠素材本身的纯展示型纪录片未免太省力了。

不觉得素材“简单”，“省力”，私以为这是精心架构出的不可沟通性，其间溢满了阻碍，隔阂，尴尬，断裂感。这种素材的展示方式，与流畅、连贯、掩盖了沟通的阻碍的采访成品相比，不正像无调性、不协和的音乐之于调性、协和的音乐吗？像消解旋律那样，消解采访。偶尔飘过的Monk的呼吸声，像极了点描主义的交响里忽而扬起的黑管声！开头蛮妙的。

拍摄确实一般。英文字幕没有完全看懂（希望以后出中文字幕），感觉里面有一段主持人有点冒犯。 【【英字纪录片】倒带与播放 Rewind and Play - 阿兰·戈米斯-哔哩哔哩】 https://b23.tv/X89Gu6H
