Mr. Hulot's Holiday

Our first introduction to Monsieur Hulot, the iconic alter ego of Jacques Tati who would star in three more films by the great director. A unique kind of cinematic humor that remains to this day inimitable and insurmountable, in one of the best comedies of all time.

Synopsis

Monsieur Hulot, a clumsy but likable bachelor, vacations at a seaside resort, where his presence causes one disaster after another. A series of Monsieur Hulot's blunders will highlight the ways in which the rest of the vacationers try to break free from the rigid roles and routines of their industrialized, mechanical everyday lives.
