Join us for a screening of a different movie every Wednesday night at 6:30pm at Old Town Hall, located down the street at 201 Delaware St. Admission is a sliding scale of $5-10, though no one will be turned away for lack of funds. Refreshments will be available for purchase.On Wednesday, August 20, Movies @ Old Town Hall is proud to screen PlayTime, directed by Jacques Titi, 1967.
Jacques Tati’s gloriously choreographed, nearly wordless comedies about confusion in an age of high technology reached their apotheosis with PlayTime. For this monumental achievement, a nearly three-year-long, bank-breaking production, Tati again thrust the lovably old-fashioned Monsieur Hulot, along with a host of other lost souls, into a baffling modern world, this time Paris. With every inch of its superwide frame crammed with hilarity and inventiveness, PlayTime is a lasting record of a modern era tiptoeing on the edge of oblivion.
PlayTime is in French with English subtitles, 124 minutes long, and unrated.
