Word is that Michel Gondry has made the move to Brooklyn (his previous apartment was in the East Village). The director reportedly purchased a house on Orient Avenue in East Williamsburg, and while Curbed notes that a house from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was also on Orient Avenue, this isn't the one the director purchased -- that house was sort of a fixer-upper! Gondry has some celluloid ties to the borough aside from the Eternal Sunshine house -- last week he was directing a Microsoft commercial there, and back in 2004 he filmed Dave Chappelle's Block Party. Maybe the quirky director will put some energy into creative lawn decorations!
