The audience can almost find new laughs every time they watch the film. The scene scheduling and scene design of the film have reached the highest level. It is no exaggeration to say that Jacques Tati is the Kubrick of the comedy
.
After many years, the enlightenment brought by the film still has practical significance. The film has a loose narrative and does not have a single focal point. It is a realistic comedy with many aspects of personnel intertwined. Although it is not a silent film, there is very little dialogue, and more body movements are used to create humor. Although language is abandoned, Jacques Tati's humor is not equivalent to Chaplin's slightly exaggerated performance. He uses realistic lenses to capture scenes of daily life and presents humor from a perspective that is not easily detectable by the audience. Many film characters, more clever metaphor within, cultural conflicts culvert

The film inherits the absurdity of mechanical development under the industrial background of "Modern Times", but it is not as sad as Chaplin reflects, but shows bright and colorful feelings anytime and anywhere. The hue of the whole film reduces the saturation, the cold monotone brings out a strong sense of industry, and the Bauhaus architecture in the film is full of post-modern texture. If you blindly keep your eyes on the building block-like building and cling to the protagonist's aimless behavior, then the film will be completely stripped of its soul. The focus of the film is sloppy, intended to allow the audience to choose their own perspective, without giving priority to the lens. The characters are not as exaggerated as American comedies in performance, and they have a French realistic style. Tati uses pantomime body language to give the film another perspective, ironic, objective and childlike. On the whole, the sound effects used in the film are realistic, using different sounds and levels to achieve loudness distortion, so that the noisy contrasts a silent space. If you look at it critically, the film shows a reinforced concrete forest that is incompatible with normal life, but if you return to the innocent perspective, you will find that the film always reveals a beautiful brilliance. Tati film language lacks the narrative like a direct dialogue, let the whole world into a beautiful sound of a loose paper
