Jackie and Greg are joined by Jackson Cooper, Executive Director of AGFA (American Genre Film Archive) for Jacques Tati's PLAYTIME from 1967. Topics of discussion include the film as an explosion of Where's Waldo? on 70mm, how Tati distances himself from the M. Hulot character in the film, the personal and financial toll it took on him to bring it to screen, and why it endures and continues to ascend the Sight & Sound list each decade.#43 on Sight & Sound's 2012 "The 100 Greatest Films of All Time" list.https://www.bfi.org.uk/sight-and-sound/polls/greatest-films-all-time-2012#23 on Sight & Sound's 2022 "The Greatest Films of All Time" list. https://www.bfi.org.uk/sight-and-sound/greatest-films-all-timeGet more of Jackson Cooper: https://jcooperarts.comCheck us out on Instagram: instagram.com/sceneandheardpodCheck us out at our official website: sceneandheardpod.comGraphic Design: Molly PintoMusic: Andrew CoxEditing: Greg KleinschmidtGet in touch at
