Monsieur Hulot’s Holiday (Les Vacances de Monsieur Hulot)<\/a>
Directed by Jacques Tati\u00a0
With Jacques Tati, Nathalie Pascaud, and Micheline Rolla
1953, Comedy, 1h27, France<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the holidaymakers invade the H\u00f4tel de la Plage, Hulot, fanciful and offbeat, turns up in his spluttering Salmson, and through his joyful clumsiness, he keeps disturbing the quietude of the city dwellers on holiday. In canoe, on horseback, on the beach, on the tennis court, at the hotel\u2019s restaurant, in a cemetery, or during a picnic, Hulot links gags and disasters all together. His own presence denounces the conventional and the seriousness. His elegant upstream crossing and a gallery of unforgettable portraits make up this 1950s summertime masterpiece of poetic burlesque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Film in French, English, and German with English subtitles.\u00a0
