On your mark, get set, listen!

Watching a movie by Tati is a surprising experience; in his films, sound and
music speak more than do words, overtaking the conventional discourse –
and boredom – of adulthood. Hulot remains silent, or mumbles. Tati knows
all about the noises of the modern world: beeps, rings, crackles, pneumatic
drill, cars, mechanical, electrical and rubbery sounds, the high heels of
secretaries and typewriters, factory noises, creaking doors, sighing chairs,
machines and technical machines, franglais, vacuum cleaners and the whole range
of small appliances… With all of that urban and domestic jumble, plastics
of all sorts, linoleum and formica, he composes a virtuoso partition. Signs and
signals, warning sounds and sirens mislead us in the urban space. Tati
maliciously disorients us. Maximalist, he records on five tracks in skilful,
tasteful rhythms – a pleasure for the senses. Hearing Mon Oncle, Les
Vacances de Monsieur Hulot, Playtime changes one’s outlook onto the world
– never again will you perceive the noises of towns and villages in the
same way. The modern city is Hulot’s playground – with it he
invents a totally new soundscape. Then there’s the organic, the
countryside, the barking dogs, the wasp bothering François on his bicycle,
all the way to the mailman’s fall into the river…When we met
Jacques Tati in his modest, shooting paraphernalia-filled office on rue de
Bièvres, he spoke about music hall and its rules, silent cinema, his famous
pantomime Impressions Sportives… In praise of gestures and noises, and not
a word. As for his movies’ music, which he described as color, it bursts
right into the mess, opens up the celebration: drummer’s frenzy, frenetic
dance at the Royal Garden… Never illustrative, it shakes up the thrumming
of the modern world and makes its way through the story, just like a real
character. Images and sound are edited as one single material, both equally
partaking in the story. Tati masters the art of tempo – there’s
not one sound, one note, one silence too many in the scenario. Pure
sophistication.

So try it tonight; put the record on, lie down, close your eyes and listen. If
you know Tati’s movies, your journey shall be visual and total, complete
with sequence shots, colors, blurry decors, the refinement of neon lights, the
modern city and its airport, Saint-Maur or Villa Arpel style, Saint-Sévère
or Saint-Marc-sur-mer’s “Hôtel de la plage”, big top or
auto show, Daki the dachshund, little Gérard, the American tourists… It
will all come back to your mind. Phatasmagoria. Should you not ever have seen
one Tati’s brilliant films, nor his footwork and melancholy jokes, nor
Hulot’s poetic, funny perdition and all of his other meticulously
sketched characters, then you’re in for a trip. Your imagination’s
bound to take off – for Tati, sound is cinema’s big thing.
Magnificent maniac, he captures and catches sounds and music in a skilful,
sensuous architecture. O joy of perception! The world’s noises concern
and amuse him; they say just as much as the image does, take it into modernity,
tell of our shortcomings, maladjustment and bewilderment. From music hall he
kept a liking for Foley and the art of recreating sounds in a poetic otherworld.
From the villages he brought back the funfair and the accordion; from the modern
town: music the American way, jazz, some very Parisian tunes, and other
merry-go-round melodies… Even without the images, it’s still
cinema!

What’s more: for his last scenario, Confusion, Tati had planned to
collaborate with the Sparks, the talented band behind the soundtrack for
Annette, Léos Carax’s surprising film… From Mr Hulot’s
house’s canary whistling in the sunshine to musical’s fantastic
puppets, we’re undoubtedly siding with poets.
