Bienvenue à mon site, où vous pouvez trouver tout au sujet de Jacques Tati; welcome on my site. I 'm Richard Leenen and I live in the Netherlands. On my site can find almost everything about Jacques Tati (original name Jacques Tatischeff) a French actor, screen writer and director. In a small number of movies he plays the figure of Monsieur Hulot. A simple citizen who has to deal with the new technologies of the daily life.

In Tati's movies influences are seen of "silent " movie hero's like Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd. Tati's power of discovering funny elements of common things, lift his movies to the humorous highlights of French movie arts.
Tati didn't like modern influences and new technical changes. His views are clearly captured in his movies. He plays with comic situations as technology changes in our community.
Some reactions from visiters:
bonjour !!! et toutes mes felicitations !!

Hi!
Just think your site is a great homage to a great artist. I am grateful
for the link to 'tativille'.
Do you know a source for purchase of his films on DVD or VHS in europe
and UK other than ebay online auction as I would like to complete my collection?
I have Trafic, La Vacance, L'ecole des Facteurs and Playtime (but damaged).
Grateful for any help you may be able to give.
Thanks

Als grote fan van de films van Jacques Tati zou ik niets liever willen dan
mijn kinderen deelgenoot maken van dat wat film kan zijn.
Maar ik weet niet hoe ik aan goeie videos kan komen.
Weet u een adres?
met vriendelijke groet,

Hi Richard,
I found your homepage http://home.iae.nl/users/richardl/ when seeking
the web for informations on Jacques Tati.
You seem to be an expert: Do you know whether Monsieur Hulot uses a
German Opel vehicle in his film "Mon oncle"? I believe to remember
having seen it but I am not sure.I'd appreciate your help. Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Have you seen Truffaut's Stolen Kisses? Several sites lists Tati having an apperance in it as Hulot but I didn't spot him at all. I was wondering if you could confirm any of this as I'm supposing it's another case of internet misinformation.

I'm often asked "where can I purchase a Tati movie ?". At this moment there are almost no sellingpoints available. For all good understanding: I'm not a Tati movie seller. This site has evolved from my love for his movies.
