Jacques Tati was a famous film-maker. Originally a mime, in the late 1930s he recorded some of his early sporting cameos on film with some success and thus began his career as a film-maker. In all his films, Tati plays the lead and, from his second feature film ("Les vacances de Monsieur Hulot") onwards this character is always the gauche and socially inept Monsieur Hulot. His first major feature "Jour de Fete" concerns a village postman who is influenced by a film shown at the village fete to go to extreme lengths to improve his mail deliveries. The second film, "Les vacances de Monsieur Hulot" is where Mr Hulot first appears.

Later films include "Mon Oncle", "Traffic" and "Playtime"
