It\u2019s goodbye for real this time as the boys discuss the controversial animated film that began life as a script by Jacques Tati. American critics generally welcomed Sylvain Chomet\u2019s The Illusionist in 2010. Based on a script by Tati and featuring his likeness, the film earned an Academy Award nomination, several Annie Award nominations and, best of all, a Golden Globe nomination. Purists and members of Tati\u2019s family were decidedly less fond of the film. Jonathan Rosenbaum and Roger Ebert both received emails from one of Tati\u2019s grandchildren calling The Illusionist an affront to his legacy and \u201ca sabotage\u201d of his original script. Tune in to this week\u2019s Reel Rap to hear Shane and Bennett discuss that legacy, wonder aloud about that original script and express mixed feelings about Chomet\u2019s film.
