If you’re in St Louis on Friday, you can see this new biopic which the Riverfront Times has reviewed.

Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait
Douglas Gordon & Phillipe Parreno,
2006, 90 min.

In conjunction with Rirkrit Tiravanija: Chew the Fat, the Kemper Art Museum is screening the film Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait (2006) by Douglas Gordon and Phillipe Parreno. Lutz Koepnick will present a brief introduction before the screening. NYT critic Manhola Dargis called Zidane “a celebration of the body in motion and an acknowledgment of our pleasure in watching bodies in motion, a pleasure the movies have been cultivating since Muybridge’s 19th-century locomotion studies.”
