Fancy Movie Time #18: Mon Oncle (1958) and Playtime (1967)
Added 2024-07-05 06:00:04 +0000 UTCOn this special double-feaster episode of Fancy Movie Time with Brian and A.J., the Fancy Lads find themselves in the charming French village/terrifying modernist hellscape that is the world of Jacques Tati in what many consider to be his two masterpieces: Mon Oncle (1958) and Playtime (1967). Does his sense of playfulness and incredible attention to detail make these films a Fancy Feast? Or does their somewhat lugubrious pacing make them a Failure to Fancy? One thing's for sure: the lads DO NOT speak French.

I did, indeed, find a French-style accordion cover of the Monk music and you can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gPF67nYazU
