Les Vacances De M. Hulot (1953)

Jacques Tati's directorial debut on Jour De Fete received critical acclaim, but Tati really established himself and reached new levels of popularity with 1953's Les Vacances De Monsieur Hulot. The setting is a stuffy resort community fond of the peace and quiet that Hulot interrupts. Nearly dialogue-free and driven more by episode than plot (like all of the Hulot films), standout set pieces include a disrupted funeral, an interrupted game of cards, and one of Tati's signature bits, a game of tennis played with rules that can politely be called unconventional. This lovely French, country-of-origin poster, was designed by the Rene Peron.
