tadpole-596-918256 Review of Uncle Yanco

Uncle Yanco (1967)

San Francisco has always been known as "America's Sleaziest City" . . .

[6/10 · 26 May 2021]

. . . and UNCLE YANK (as translated into American) goes a little way in explaining why this is. The home movie poser behind YANK discovers this title jerk living in a community of pointless party people who happen to be boat-bound. Just as the wench with a movie camera dabbles in moving pictures, her water-polluting shirt tail relative occasionally smears paint on on pieces of canvas probably purloined from the sails of his betters. Though this mismatched pair attempt to communicate, it appears that they may not have a language in common. This is no great loss.
