An incomparable spectacle.
Clumsy Monsieur Hulot finds himself perplexed by the intimidating complexity of a gadget-filled Paris. He attempts to meet with a business contact but soon becomes lost. His roundabout journey parallels that of an American tourist, and as they weave through the inventive urban environment, they intermittently meet, developing an interest in one another. They eventually get together at a chaotic restaurant, along with several other quirky characters.

Shocking, revelatory movie–completely unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Not so much acted as choreographed, the whole movie was just this exquisite series of moments that captured a very particular malaise of modernism. The sets were sparse and beautiful, especially the incredible sequence set in the apartments. The sound design was amaaaazing–I watched this using my Airpods which really helped bring out small nuances and amplified a sense of immersion in this strange world. Loved this weird ass movie.
Definitely it is something different but I am sure it is not my type of movie.

Amazing production design and looks great! but that's about it for me. I didn't connect with the "silent" movie narrative and so I was in low-level boredom throughout. Like watching a TV on mute in some waiting room. Still, really pretty to look at.
