Monsieur Hulot's Holiday (Le Vacances de Monsieur Hulot)

(Directed by Jacques Tati/1953/87 mins.)

With Jacques Tati, Nathalie Pascaud, Michelline Rolla, Valentine Camax

In French with English subtitles.

Pipe-smoking Monsieur Hulot, Jacques Tati's endearing clown, takes a holiday at a seaside resort where his presence provokes one catastrophe after another. Tati's wildly funny satire of vacationers determined to enjoy themselves includes a series of precisely choreographed sight gags involving dogs, boats, and firecrackers. The first entry in the Hulot series is a masterpiece of gentle slapstick.

 “One of the most original—and hilarious—comedies ever made, M. Hulot's Holiday has delighted and disarmed moviegoers the world over since its first appearance in 1953. There's little in the way of plot or dialogue to this French-made farce about a group of vacationers at a small seaside hotel. But an unconventional form has not stood in the way of audience appreciation of the film's comic content—good, old-fashioned slapstick fun.”-David Ehrenstein
