"This is art concealing art. On the face of it, the film is a gentle satire of French bourgeois life on holiday. There is no story, just Hulot (Jacques Tati himself) drifting innocently through a holiday resort, leaving a trail of confusion behind him. The gags are wonderful, apparently effortless, the situations natural. In reality, the film is the extraordinary creation of a man obsessed with perfection. Each move, each image was planned in detail by Tati until the gags were immaculate; the tennis ball that bounces off the head of the serious little girl curtsying to her elders, the paint pot that floats out to sea, then back on the opposite side of the beached fishing boat; everything apparently natural, everything the product of intense creativity."

I really enjoyed this book, was a really good read. the story line was well written and the characters were lovable and funny. the story flowed really well keeping you hooked till the last page. the characters chemistry just jumps of the page from when they first meet.

A true holiday classic
The classic tale of a judge trying to decide whether Kris Kringle is really Santa Claus is an all time classic. The acting, storytelling and light-hearted seriousness makes this one of those films you can watch over and over again.

The remake is also a good film; however, always start with the original.
