Reel Rap: Tati's 'Mon Oncle' (1958)

Published: April 9, 2020, midnight

b"In 1959, 'Mon Oncle' won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. A few days ago, it won Shane and Bennett\\u2019s hearts. With their first episode recorded in quarantine, listen in as the head Reelheads discuss neoliberal architecture, unclehood and one of the best comedies they\\u2019ve ever seen. \\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."
