Jacques Tati born 1909 - 1982 Mon Oncle (My Uncle) 1958, was his first film to be released in color and perhaps his best-known work. The plot centers on M. Hulot's comedic, quixotic and childlike struggle with postwar France's mindless obsession with modernity and American-style consumerism. Mon Oncle quickly became an international success, and won that year's Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film (Oscar), a Special Prize at Cannes, as well as the prestigious New York Film Critics Award.

What a wonderful gift Jacques Tati gave to the world in these buoyant, witty comedies. Satire without a speck of mean spirit. His films always lift my heart.
A worthwhile endeavor. Tati spent as much time editing the sound on his films as he did the visuals. (I first saw this movie as part of a film class in the mid-70s...)
