Jacques Tati’s final outing as Monsieur Hulot now on DVD



Jacques Tati’s final outing as Monsieur Hulot filmed in 1971 and available for the first time on DVD

The amiable, accident-prone and unfailingly courteous exile from a more graceful era of unhurried old-world charm is now employed as a draughtsman in a car company and is attempting to accompany his new product - an absurd camper-van - to the 'Internationale Autoshow' in Amsterdam. Will he, public relations girl Maria and driver Marcel, make it on time? The set-pieces are famous – the extravagant, injury-free pile-up and the windscreen wipers acting in character with their drivers. A prescient satire on human obsession with the internal combustion engine.

Available for just £12.99 (inc post and packing)

If you would like to buy Les Vacances de M. Hulot, Playtime, Jour de Fete, Mon Oncle or our bundle offer of all five Tati films, including Trafic, for £62.50 please click here

Desperately unfunny, like all the other M. Hulot films. I start watching them with the best of intentions and after about 2 minutes want to gouge out my own eyeballs to make it stop. If I could give negative stars I would.

Parade was Tati's final film, Playtime preceded Trafic. As Tati played a clown in Parade, the description given on the website is accurate - Trafic was the last Hulot film It is brilliant in its observation of drivers, particularly in traffic jams - nose picking, etc. - and I often think of it when stuck in traffic.

Although an absolute masterwork, this is not the final outing of Mr Hulot! "Playtime" - another incredible piece in the history of cinema - that ended up ruining Tati - is!
