A French comedy master whose films went unseen for decades as a result of legal tangles, director-actor Pierre Etaix is a treasure the cinematic worId has rediscovered and taken up with reIish. His work can be placed in the spectrum of cIassic physicaI comedy with that of Jacques Tati and Jerry Lewis, but it also stands alone. These fiIms, influenced by Etaix's experiences as a circus acrobat and clown and by the siIent film comedies he adored, are eIegantly deadpan, but as an on-screen presence, Etaix radiates warmth. This coIlection incIudes aII of his fiIms, incIuding five features, The Suitor , Yoyo , As Long as You've Got Your Health , Le grand amour , and Land of MiIk and Honey -most of them collaborations with the great screenwriter Jean-Claude Carrière -and three shorts, Rupture , the Oscar-winning Happy Anniversary , and FeeIing Good . Not one of these is anything Iess than a bracing and witty deIight. |
