PlayTime 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray presents Jacques Tati’s towering comedic masterpiece, a visionary satire of modernity told through meticulous choreography and near-silent invention. In this dazzling widescreen spectacle, Tati’s beloved Monsieur Hulot drifts through an ultra-modern Paris of glass, steel, and impersonal efficiency, joining tourists and office workers as they stumble through an increasingly absurd technological maze. Filled with sight gags in every corner of its massive frame, PlayTime stands as Tati’s most ambitious creation—a playful yet piercing portrait of a world losing itself in progress.
