Customer Rating:      Summary: Gentle, Undemanding and Very Funny. Comment: My personal favourite film from Jacques Tati, Jour De Fete is gentle, undemanding and very funny. The story of a village postman in rural France the film has little in the way of plot or dialogue. Jour De Fete may be set in a France that never existed but so what? If you are feeling stressed by the 21st century watch Jour de Fete and see how a good quality of life is better than a high standard of living.
To watch Jaques Tati is to see how crass most modern comedies have become.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Tati's first ... Comment: Tati's first feature, now restored to its original carnival colour, mixes priceless physical comedy with profound vision of a vanished France.
