Mon oncle (1958)
7/10
This Uncle is Amusing & Gentle

This is my first, and thus far only Tati film. It's cute, clever, and humorous in abundance. Did I bust a gut during this film, no, but that does not in any way deny that it is humorous throughout. Other than a comedy it's hard to classify Mon Oncle. It has elements of slapstick, satire, parody, social commentary to name just a few ingredients, plus some very adept performances. It's very short on dialogue and it will definitely not be everyone's cup of tea, but for me at least it served up and cup full of delights.
