This scene from Jacques Tati’s Mon Oncle seems like something picked straight out of my vivid imagination when I was a little kid, back when I was constantly dreaming up buildings, each more fantastic than the next.

Jacques Tati is unforgettable , thanks
now just few words :
VANDALS. A few days ago I read that in Ronchamp in France, one of the most important works of the architecture of the ‘900, a masterpiece of the architect Le Corbusier, suffered a serious act of vandalism: between 16 and January 17, 2014, someone broke through a window of the chapel of Notre-Dame du Haut, after the failed attempt to enter the front door, forcing it and damaging it. In my small way I would give my modest contribution to stigmatize the sad event. if you have time try to see this video:
original photographs by mario caruso. music ,C minor blues of Modern Jazz Quartet , and adagio for strings by Samuel Barber.
full screen reccomended , I would be pleased to receive your comments . thank you .
Reminds me of the great George Perec novel, Life: a users manual. Magical.
Camariano43 and Culture Decanted, I love Jacques Tati. I’m glad not to be the only one!
