Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
Monsieur Hulot goes on a holiday to a seaside resort, but accidents and misunderstandings follow him wherever he goes. The peace and quiet of the hotel guests don’t last very long with Hulot around, because although his actions are in good faith, they always turn out catastrophically for everybody.

Re-edited, re-orchestrated and re-mixed over a period of 25 years, the genius Jacques Tati made his first outing as the beloved quixotic figure Monsieur Hulot in this sensational postwar comedy. This painstakingly choreographed social satire fills its ever frame with tremendous visual humor.
