Paris: Cady Films 1949. Original French program for the 1949 Jacques Tati film "Jour de Fete" the director's first feature-length movie about a day in the life of a rural French postman illustrated throughout in color by Rene Peron. Rather than being a typical program with biographies photographs film stills and essays Tati's approach is to introduce the film's cast and crew details then tell its story along with illustrations in the manner of a children's book. "Jour de fete" was shot in both Thomson-Color and black-and-white and due to processing difficulties with the former only the black-and-white version was seen for decades until 1995 when the color version was restored. Fascinatingly this rare program clearly illustrates the vivid color that Tati intended audiences in France and Europe to see-though no one did.
