Parade
Synopsis
Juggling the roles of emcee and performer, Jacques Tati hosts a series of circus acts in a music hall for a family audience. The spectators—adults and children alike—are invited to participate in the rambunctious variety show, which encompasses acrobatics, magic tricks, and pantomime routines.
Editorial
A perfect platform for the director’s signature slapstick, Jacques Tati’s last film sees him act as the virtuoso conductor of a circus, wherein both the performers and spectators take part in the whole parade! Made for Swedish television, it is Tati’s homage to the arts he had begun his career with.
