When it comes to post-sound era physical comedy, Jaques Tati's character Monsieur Hulot is an inspiration that still resounds today. Alex and Jonathan take a look at the complex scenarios created in Monsieur Hulot's Holiday (1953), Playtime (1967), and Trafic (1971). We talk about traits of the Hulot character, how Tati built a miniature city, and how he is able to convey specific gags in complexly choreographed wide shots.Skip to:Coming Attractions:The Maltese Falcon (1941)Double Indemnity (1944)Touch of Evil (1958)For more information, visit the blog:thefilmlings.wordpress.com/2018/10/02/tricky-tati
