Monsieur Hulot's Holiday Comments

    You can see the legacy of comedy, such as the use of objects (boats and paint buckets), amplified to abnormal sounds (cars, doors, balls), as if the dance movements were suddenly interrupted and then connected. The temporality of "holiday" is just like what Bazin said, "creating the world", that is, it becomes spatial. The macroscopic time becomes no longer important, and the beginning and end prompts are enough. The specific time is emphasized and gradually becomes a mechanized one. Repeated...

    The concept of space has not yet been explored. It is more like a traditional silent film comedy, but it has improved a lot with the fun of Hollywood stick slapstick. Using the occasional order to create unusual harmony, the sound effects provide close-up-like effects without being obtrusive, and the scenery continues even when accidents happen. The ending is great, and is this the kind of comedy that comes from Golden Week for...

    Lazy and sloppy, wise as foolishness, graceful falls and small steps. It should be the most hilarious and purest comedy of the four tati movies I've seen. ps: Is that little boy the lady in "My Uncle"...

    The second one after "Game Time" has less jokes and creativity than the former. Although the pace is slow, the overall atmosphere is quite interesting, and some details are very funny. It was found that Tati used a lot of props, and he was very imaginative after facing the environment and props at the scene! Things that happen on the spot are often things that cannot be made up in the house. Bean may be a bit of an imitation of...

    Ugly comedies with traditional body language, especially those with dense burdens and even upstairs, require a series of scenes - there may be no plot, but there must be scenes, otherwise it will become a hodgepodge of independent burdens - so the gimmick Design is a test of imagination. The film's comedic approach and Mr. Bean's approach seem to be in the same...

  • The Aunt: A marvelous view, don't you think, Monsieur? I was just admiring the sea, the rocks, the white sails. It's all so lovely. Is that Saint-Nazare? See? Over there.

    Monsieur Hulot: No. It's over there.

    The Aunt: I always find a seaside vacation so pleasant and restful. Unfortunately, it's so windy that my hair's always a mess.
