Jacques Tati (1908-1982)


There were no stars in the film, or rather, the set was the star, at least at the beginning of the film. So I opted for the buildings, facades that were modern but of high quality because it’s not my business to criticise modern architecture. - comment on Tati's creation of "Tativille," the instant city and film set built for his now legendary film "Playtime."
