Jacques Tati - Soundtrack Music from 'Play Time' - Video
PUBLISHED:  Nov 09, 2012
DESCRIPTION:
Jacques Tati (1907-1982) was a French filmmaker. During his career, he worked as a comic actor, writer, as well as director. He only made six feature-length films. This album features theme music from four:
Jour de Fête (The Big Day) http://youtu.be/CNbjW7oi1V0
Les Vacances de Monsieur Hulot (Mr. Hulot's Holiday)
http://youtu.be/2N8zGSb5-jw
Mon Oncle (My Uncle) http://youtu.be/SzYcVGP_ris
Play Time

'Mon Oncle' was the first of his films I saw--on the big screen, in the late 1950's. Unforgettable. Humorous and charming, it doesn't have a lot of dialog--doesn't need it.
The music too is utterly enchanting and enjoyable. In some ways, to me it is reminiscent of some of Michel Legrand's 'I Love Paris' album.
I own nothing here.
