Le Mercredi Français – E Mërkura Franceze – French Wednesday
With the Embassy of France in Albania and in the frames of the Mercredi Français (French Wednesday), now every Wednesday, retrospective on Jacques Tati:
Screening on the 1rst of June 2011 – 19:00 – Free Entrance
“Parade”
by Jacques Tati
85 min – 1974 – Comedy
(French language with English subtitles)
Despite being mainly shot in video (Tati had anticipated the gradual switch to digital) and financed by the Swedish television, Parade was nevertheless made to be screened in cinemas, although this film, which was to be his last, is essentially a tribute to the performing arts. In his portrayal of a Monsieur Loyal who ensures that there is a smooth change-over between circus acts, Tati revives the “sporting impressions” he used to perform at the music hall.
