Monsieur Hulot's Holiday ...
... is, for me, the perfect film. There isn't a superfluous frame, and it has innocence, charm and simplicity matching a wonderfully insightful view of humanity.
However, I sometimes think I like "Mon Oncle" even more, because of its themes of the individual against the collective and the personal against the faceless. And a final, transcending moment which turns bitterness into love.
They're both by Jacques Tati, by the way.

the memory of Mon Oncle and the scene in the hose factory still fills me with mirth today.
