Mon Oncle ★★★★ My Uncle; My Uncle, Mr. Hulot 1958
Tati's celebrated comedy contrasts the simple life of Monsieur Hulot with the technologically complicated life of his family when he aids his nephew in war against his parents' ultramodern, push-button home. An easygoing, delightful comedy, this is the director's first piece in color. Sequel to “Mr. Hulot's Holiday,” followed by “Playtime.” In French with English subtitles. 110m/C VHS, DVD .
