M. Hulot's Holiday [Subtitled] DVD Summary
Already familiar to many, especially following his acclaimed directorial debut
Jour De Fete
,
Jacques Tati
came into his own and reached new levels of popularity with 1953's
Les Vacances De Monsieur Hulot
.
The first film to introduce his much-loved alter ego
Monsieur Hulot
, it sets the pattern for future appearances of the character, throwing the bumbling hero unwittingly into the middle of the action and letting the ensuing mishaps provoke humor ranging from gentle observations to fairly biting satire.
The setting this time is a stuffy resort community fond of the peace and quiet that
Hulot
interrupts without fail.
Nearly dialogue-free and driven more by episode than plot (like all of the
Hulot
films), standout set pieces include a disrupted funeral, an interrupted game of cards, and -- one of
Tati
's signature bits -- a game of tennis played with rules that can politely be called unconventional.
