Subtlety in art (any art) is not often appreciated, as folks seem to always look for the "big bang" or fancy explanations Tati and Kovacs were able to leave much space for their viewers to project themselves into the work....lotsa room for the imagination! "Playtime" is great...thanks to this post I'll have to drag it off the shelf and watch it thanks Kurt M A T T
