True story: Jacques Tati shot his wry comedy epic on 70 mm in order to capture every purpose-built mid-century architectural detail, every bit of odd background business, and every sight gag, no matter how broad or subtle. The film’s loving sendup of the modern world still works a half century later because of Tati’s read on people, not the shiny glass. -Lee Gardner
