So being rather unfamiliar with Tati’s work in general, I had planned on seeing all of his work at a Tati retrospective that is playing here in the Bay Area this month. But upon reading about it, I noticed that Mon oncle was the only one being screened in English. At first I was dismayed and was going to skip it and just get the DVD from my local library, but now I have read that Tati himself made the English version as its own separate film.
What’s the general consensus on how the English version compares to the French? Should I skip it and just see the French version on the DVD, or is the English also great and worth shelling out a few clams for to see it in a theater?

I keep rating movies but it’s not giving me the pop-up that gives me the option to post on Facebook. Is anyone else having this issue?
