b"Shane and Bennett discusses Jacques Tati\\u2019s masterpiece, 'PlayTime,' one of the most ambitious and excellent films ever made.\\n\\nThis week, it\\u2019s down to brass tacks as Reel Rap explores a film that\\u2019s overwhelming in every sense. 'PlayTime' (1967) may have disappointed contemporary audiences and landed Jacques Tati in director jail, but history has more than vindicated it. The boys try not to drag its fine name through the muck as they discuss shallow cultural experiences, tactile comedy and the value of good ol\\u2019 American loudmouths.\\n\\nA comedy duo straight out of William Penn\\u2019s backyard, Bennett Glace, an adult Disney fan, and Shane Pfender, an ordained minister, have for years lent a critical eye to Hollywood\\u2019s most tedious auteurs. They are a comedy duo for film snobs and slobs alike. Exhausted by the current uninspired landscape of film criticism, the two work to find a new language with which to understand and interact with the films they cover on their inimitable podcast, Reel Rap.\\n\\nReel Rap's theme song is composed by John Lettieri."
