Hello Yael. Yes, I see you've been having dreadful trouble with your neighbours again, and as usual Israel is being accused of being 'heavy-handed'. Nothing changes!
Every Wednesday evening the university Film Society used to show Foreign language films (doesn’t that sound delightfully old-fashioned nowadays) and Jacques Tati was always my favourite. Thanks for a lovely reminder Cro.
I posted the same many years ago and many other clips from Tati movies. A Vietnamese chap said I had an unhealthy interest in Tati movies, but I just love them. I cannot find on Youchube a clip of where a lad bangs his fist on the boot of car, leading to the person in the car in front accusing the one behind of hitting his/her car.

Good morning Cro, Sunday here is not like Sunday there, but I smiled.

A good smile..thankyou. And we have sunshine this morning too.
I ran our Film Club at college, and I used to hire the most bizarre US underground films. Very avant garde!
It's windy here now, and the skies are darkening....
I'll watch Tati again.
Used to love Tati - haven't seen that before though.

Well, that would be the boot of the front car, the driver of which accused the driver of the car behind. I guess you knew what I meant.
There's no such thing as 'an unhealthy interest in Tati'; he's worth all the interest we show in him.
I love his restraint. Funny guy.
He was great.
Watching this was a nice start to my day.
In an unassuming way.
Can't be bad, can it.
You've just initiated a Tati virgin. What a nice Sunday surprise on the rare, almost freezing morning in the Louisiana swamps. I thank you! :-)
That pleases me (not your weather; but the Tati initiation). You must watch M Hulot's Holiday; it's a classic.
I too have never seen any Tati before. That was definitely entertaining. Love that old house!
I haven't seen that one before either. It's afternoon now but I still smiled!
Oh that house! All the levels, the stairs, the windows. I want it.
