If you loved Mon Oncle, try PlayTime

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Jacques Tati, and they sit in Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mon Oncle, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What PlayTime is

Jacques Tati’s playgrounds are office buildings and dinner parties. Monsieur Hulot navigates a glass-and-steel Paris where doors, stairs and elevators conspire against him on the way to a business meeting, occasionally bumping into an oblivious American tourist. The film’s genius lies in finding comedy in things that have no plot at all.
