Résumés(1)
Des touristes américaines ont opté pour une formule de voyage grâce à laquelle elles visitent une capitale par jour. Mais arrivées à Orly, elles se rendent compte que l'aéroport est identique à tous ceux qu'elles ont déjà fréquentés. En se rendant à Paris, elles constatent également que le décor est le même que celui des autres capitales... (La Pellicule Ensorcelée)

A film where everything happens very quickly and chaotically, but at the same time nothing happens – just like in the modern, impersonal times it satirically describes. That the work with sound perspective is amazing (as it is) and that every formal choice matches to perfection Tati's symbolic intentions is not enough to make the film a mega-fun and inspiring classic. There are some really great ideas, and the restaurant scene is certainly good, but I can't shake the feeling that it's disproportionately drawn out, and that if I were to film me and my friends' nightlife, the mise-en-scène would have offered far greater and more numerous gems to laugh at, in every sense…

Jacques Tati's films are so specific that you feel like you are watching someone who understood the world so uniquely that either you tune into his wavelength or not. In this case, it is a film that is and is not a grotesque, is and is not a comedy. Such portrayal of society is truly not far from reality, which sometimes gives quite a chill.
