About
M. Hulot's Holiday
Another amiable comedy from director/star Jacques Tati - the first to feature his classic character Mr. Hulot. There are a handful of brilliant comic moments, but they are surprisingly few and far between - it's too slow-paced and easy-going to generate the energy it needs to be the comedy classic of its reputation. Tati would have greater success with later Hulot films, particularly 'Playtime'.
