Two Modern Revelers

About This Movie

So, 'Two Modern Revelers' is an interesting slice of 70s comedy that dives into the relationship between a father and son, but not in the cliché way. The father's a successful entrepreneur, but his son? Total slacker. The setup is amusing—there’s a trusted employee who has to keep a close eye on the son as he attempts to start his own business. It plays with themes of responsibility and redemption, but in a light-hearted manner. The pacing is steady, allowing for some genuine comedic moments. The performances range from endearing to hilariously awkward, really capturing that era’s vibe. It’s not groundbreaking, but it has a certain charm, and I think it deserves a place in any 70s comedy collection.

'Two Modern Revelers' has seen a limited home video release, primarily on VHS, which makes finding a good copy a bit of a hunt. The scarcity of this title contributes to its appeal among collectors, especially those interested in 70s comedies. It doesn't pop up often at conventions or estate sales, but when it does, it tends to catch the eye of anyone who appreciates that quirky humor of the time.
