Other reviewers are saying this is not his best? I can't wait to see his other films because I've only seen this and Playtime. I loved them both but this was my favourite. (It took me a while to get into Playtime, so maybe you enjoy him more as you get used to him?)
Give it a chance, it has something for everyone. There's lots of slapstick but also sweet quiet slice of life moments to make you think (like watching children playing after the show).
I laughed a lot and the acts were amazing. The audience, the fashions, the immaculate detail of every scene - I couldn't take my eyes off everything
Jacques Tati was in his 70s here?? I wish I was as cool as him
