Jackie and Greg discuss Jean Renoir's ensemble farce from 1939. Topics include the dawn of WWII, Renoir's overlapping characters and their influence on future generations of filmmakers, and the hunting scene in which over 100 animals are killed. Join them as they try their hardest not to compare Renoir's film to DOWNTON ABBEY (2010 - 2015) too frequently.
