Beguiling overlooked comedy - Rumba review by Mr Aquarium
This French film is a mix of Buster Keaton and Monsieur Hulot; a dotty, often very physical comedy. Silly in the best sense of the word; visually inventive, slapsticky but also nudging on serious threats to characters' well-beings [to explain that more would be a plot-spoiler]. Abel and Gordon's other films are also worth pursuing, such as "Lost in Paris".
