Trafic (1971)

After watching Monsieur Hulot’s Holiday, I’ve been gradually seeking out Jacques Tati’s filmography. While this isn’t quite equal to the large, chaotic world-building of PlayTime, it still maintains some of the qualities of a Richard Scarry picture book. Employees of the Altra Automotive Co. are trying to get their camper car from Paris to a car show in Amsterdam, facing unending hurdles along the way. Maria Kimberly as the publicity agent is particularly amusing, especially in how she manages her car and cute little dog. I absolutely love the camper car and wish I had one.
