Printemps de fête
Starting this month, La Cinémathèque française in Paris is doing a retrospective and festival devoted to my favorite director, Jacques Tati. I really wish I could be there for it, cause there's absolutely nothing better than seeing Tati in a theatre. In his case, I don't think it's just snobbery to say that his films can only truly be seen on a big screen.
But what really makes me smile is just how charming the splash animation and overall design for the Cinémathèque's Tati site is.
This site is similarly lovely - apparently they've reconstructed a set from Jour de Fête? Wonderful.
Oh, and one more. Here's the beautiful design for the recently released Criterion DVD of Tati's Trafic:
