4/10
Not too good, even for 1947

This is a Jacques Tati short film from almost 70 years ago and it runs for 15 minutes and tells us how to be a good postman. However, apart from some pretty unfunny slapstick scenes, mostly we see people cycling around. Tati wrote, directed and starred in this and the problem is not at all that it is in black-and-white, but that it's just not really funny and also inferior to the comedy from the United States in the late 1940s. All in all, I was rather disappointed with it. Maybe it's so popular because it's pretty French with the whole atmosphere and also the music, but it's not really popular because it's strong filmmaking or very funny I have to say. Not recommended.
