Resnais’ first English language picture (scripted by British playwright David Mercer) recaptured the genius of his earlier films: John Gielgud stars as a brilliant, Machiavellian writer who hallucinates his last novel using his family members – Dirk Bogarde, Ellen Burstyn and David Warner – as characters.
One of Resnais’ biggest critical and commerical successes, MON ONCLE illustrates the radical theories of human behavioral scientist Henri Laborit by comically studying the interwoven stories of a factory manager (Gerard Depardieu), an aspiring actress (Nicole Garcia), and a politician (Roger-Pierre).
The thoughts and emotions of the fictional characters are magically "mirrored" by clips of three of France’s most famous movie stars – Jean Gabin, Jean Marais and Danielle Darrieux.
