Modern city life with its new technological gadgets touches in the presence of Mr. Hulot increasingly disrupted.
In this film classic, the curious and awkward Mr. Hulot wanders through an ultramodern Paris. Modern city life with its new technological gadgets touches in the presence of Mr. Hulot increasingly disrupted. This film is both a comic and a form of criticism of modern life. The character Mr. Hulot does not fit within the modern city. Although this film was made in the 1960s, the underlying question is still current. As a person, how do you deal with the constantly changing society and environment?
