Review of Monsieur Hulot's Holiday (1953) by Delarme L — 08 Feb 2009
Charming slapstick featuring Tati's hopelessly oblivious alter ego on holiday at a beach resort. Hulot is a gentle menace, and a masterwork of physical comedy that's consistently funny without being cruel.
Playful and good-natured, this is the antidote to the shrill exhibitionism and blunt irony that often passes for humor at the movies.
