1. Jacques Tati's Mon Oncle.

I'm so glad TCM is introducing the young audience to Jacques Tati with Mon Oncle at 8PM. And I hope they stay tuned for Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times at 10PM.

These wonderful, whimsical comedies are some of the best examples of why we of the older generation have always loved movies so much.
