About

The first appearance of Jacques Tati’s much-loved Monsieur Hulot finds the bumbling protagonist venturing to the seaside for a summer holiday – invariably causing chaos wherever he goes. Tati’s film is a whimsical treat, full of charming characters, sweet-natured humour and immaculately-choreographed visual brilliance.
