PREVIEW - #730 - The Malaise of Modernity

from Michael and Us · host Luke Savage and Will Sloan

Jacques Tati rebuilt Paris from the ground up - and bankrupted himself in the process - to make his masterpiece PLAYTIME (1967), a gentle satire of ultra-modern postwar France that has a certain affection for what it's satirizing. We discuss the film that couldn't quite kill Monsieur Hulot. PATREON-EXCLUSIVE EPISODE - https://www.patreon.com/michaelandus/posts/730-malaise-of-164033227
