Life is full of homages to Jacques Tati. Tati is a great film comic who deserves to be placed on the same level as Keaton or Chaplin. His Monsieur Hulot has now entered the world of screen legends. Above everything else, Jacques Tati was an artist who did not fear to take risks nor to put his entire being in each one of his films. From Jour de fête to Parade, there is a Tati-World which this remarkable study by Michel Chion invites us to discover. Besides being an important writer of film books in France, Michel Chion is also a composer and filmmaker whose film Éponine was awarded the Prix Vigo in 1985.
