The Dryden Theater at George Eastman House (900 East Ave.) will be showing Les vacances de Monsieur Hulot (Mr. Hulot's Holiday) starting at 8 p.m. and again on Sunday at 5 p.m. The Eastman House Calendar says, "in the classic, much-loved movie that revealed his multi-layered comedic style, [Jacques Tati] first appears as the clumsy rain-coated, pipe-smoking title character. Taking a beach holiday in the South of France, Hulot gets caught up in a parade of slapstick sequences that provide us the vicarious enjoyment of his (mis)adventures. Tati's unique visual gags and ingenious sound design reinforce the delights of the cinema as they remind us of the piquant absurdities of modern life. This new 35mm restoration allows viewing of Tati's definitive version."
