#729: TATI, Jacques: The Complete Jacques Tati (1949-74)

THE COMPLETE JACQUES TATI {Spine #729}

TATI, Jacques (France)

Blu-ray

Though he made only a handful of films, director, writer, and actor Jacques Tati ranks among the most beloved of all cinematic geniuses. With a background in music hall and mime performance, Tati steadily built an ever-more-ambitious movie career that ultimately raised sight-gag comedy to the level of high art. In the surrogate character of the sweet and bumbling, eternally umbrella-toting and pipe-smoking Monsieur Hulot, Tati invented a charming symbol of humanity lost in a relentlessly modernizing modern age. This set gathers his six hiloarious features — Jour de fête, Monsieur Hulot's Holiday, Mon oncle, PlayTime, Trafic, and Parade — along with seven delightful Tati-related short films.
