Hodejegerne (2011) - 8.75
I had to download the subtitles.
Odd that as my copy came with the subtitles included. Pretty decent adaptatio of the Nesbo novel though

Tati received a lot of fame in his own time and is still a big name today for people with any interest in cinema. but French TV has slowly moved away from diffusing old stuff as it's been interpreted by the audience as something done by crappy channels having no money. instead most go for new everything! doesn't matter if it's crap, people will watch because it's new and we're a curious bunch. so old movies have less screen time nowadays and when they do, it's going to be late on some improbable channel that most people don't ever check, or once a year for the anniversary of a dude's death.Mon Oncle (1958) - 10/10
Second movie in the Mr. Hulot "series". Probably one of the best movies i've seen in maybe five years!
It's also one of the funniest. Two scenes were some of the funniest things i've seen in a long long time.
I actually now want to buy the movie so I can get my mom to watch it. She's a fan of Charlie Chaplin and Marx Brothers movies.
PS if you hate subtitles you can still enjoy this without them I think. There is not very much dialogue.
BTW i'd be interested in knowing if his films are still popular in France.
Playtime - 7/10
Third movie in the Mr. Hulot series directed by Jacques Tati.
Unfortunately this one isn't as fun to watch as the first two.
Nowhere near as funny either.
Some scenes seem to go on forever and aren't all that interesting to watch and kind of boring (the apartment scene).
The only scene that kept me watching was the one in the nightclub.
I was surprised that some consider this to be the director's best film.
I'm going to still watch all his films but i've noticed that many of them are getting hard to find.
