If you loved Same Old Song, try My American Uncle

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 Alain Resnais, and they sit in Comedy / Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Same Old Song, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What My American Uncle is

A mid-career French think tank tries to turn pop psychology into cocktail party chatter. René sweats over pink slips, Janine juggles doomed affairs, and Jean polishes the résumé he keeps forgetting to update. The only thing smaller than the payoff is the film’s attention span.
