Jacque Tati's second feature film and first film in color reintroduces his hilarious Chaplinesque alter ego, M. Hulot.
After having followed Hulot on his sun-drenched, foible-filled seaside vacation in MR. HULOT'S HOLIDAY, MON ONCLE finds Tati contrasting Hulot's bohemian provincial home life with the modern, contraption-filled concrete and glass home belonging to his sister and her family, the Arpels, where Hulot's nephew, Gerard, is drowning in boredom. When Hulot comes for a visit, the gadgets get the better of him, in a seamless spectacle of electric switches, slamming doors and malfunctioning accoutrements. Tati shuttles back and forth between Hulot's quaint home of friendly, if mischievous neighbors and music filled provincial cafe's and the Arpel's surreal and cold ultra modern lifestyle, creating an evocative and whimsical contrast that Tati would develop further in his future masterpieces, PLAYTIME and TRAFFIC. When Mr. Arpel contrives to secure Hulot a position at his rubber tubing factory, Mrs. Arpel simultaneously conspires to fix him up with an eccentric neighbor, Hulot's clumsy and gullible nature lead him into myriad tangles with the Arpels modern lifestyle, climaxing in an intricately absurd garden party.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Mono - FrenchAdditional Release Material: Introduction - 1.

Brutal terrorist T was a government agent until his agency used him as a pawn against his will, turning his own government against him. Now, his former government associate, Jay, is on his trail.

Based on an acclaimed novel by Emmanuel Carrere, the French psycho-thriller CLASS TRIP plunges viewers into the mind of an emotionally damaged child. Nicholas (Clement van den Bergh) is a shy, socially isolated schoolboy teased by classmates, dominated by an overprotective father (Francois Roy), and frighteningly plagued by nightmarish visions of death and disaster. On a class trip to the French Alps, Nicholas finds himself befriended by the school bully Hodkann (Lokman Nalcakan), who is intrigued by his strange classmate's dreams and hallucinations. When local police find a dead child in the woods--murdered and horribly mutilated--Nicholas senses a connection between the crime and his visions, and sets out to find the killer with the help of his new friend. Writer/director Claude Miller (L'EFFRONTEE, ALIAS BETTY) makes perfect use of pristine cinematography and a haunting orchestral score to create a mournful meditation on the loss of childhood innocence.DVD Features:Region [unknown]Keep CaseAnamorphic WidescreenAdditional Release Material: Trailer Bonus TrailersInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Features
