Mon Oncle Antoine

Canadian writer and director Claude Jutra delivered his masterpiece with this "coming of age" drama. The portrait of a small mining town and its people through the eyes of a young orphan boy. Jutra's background in documentary helps his naturalistic approach to this film which is simple yet profound, full of small wonders without a false beat. Jutra has assembled a top notch cast and crew for a film considered the greatest Canadian film of all time. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
