Summary

Oscar-winning French director/performer Jacques Tati (1907-1982) was a fiercely innovative and original filmmaker who found inspiration in the observation of life around him. By creating and playing unassuming characters thrown into the bustle of society--the hapless postman François and the maladroit Monsieur Hulot--Tati brilliantly exposed the ways in which class distinctions, social mores, architecture, and technology affect the basic ways that humans relate to one another. Designed by M/M (Paris), the set includes: Volume I, "Tati Shoots": stills from all six feature films; Volume II, "Tati Writes": the complete screenplays, plus those of the unmade films The Illusionist and Confusion, illustrated by pages from Tati's original drafts; Volume III, "Tati Works": a comprehensive survey of his life and work; Volume IV, "Tati Explores": essays on important themes in his films; Volume V, "Tati Speaks": quotations, interviews, and a previously unpublished memoir by Tati.
