Playtime (1967) - C for Classic Criterion

Cinema To The Letter: the perfect podcast to listen to while you're stumbling through a steel French hellscape! To kick off their Criterion season, Thomas, Bryan and special guest Megan Robinson are looking at the classic film from director Jacques Tati Playtime! Together, our trio answers the crucial questions. How do Americans pronounce Jacques Tati? Does this message of modernization break the barriers of language and time? How much money does Mr. Bean owe Monsieur Hulot? Well, don't drop your phone into that Greek pillar garbage can so you can listen to find out!
