-a funny and warm French comedy
-it works as a silent film; Jacques Tati's (writer, director and M. Hulot) comedic moments are as funny and work as Chaplin, Keaton and Lloyd tricks. ironically there is very little necessary dialogue like "La Ballon Rouge" of 1956
-excellent character development. we get to know all the characters as Hulot gets to know them
-the music is wonderfully present providing a cozy and warm feeling a throughout the film
