Gai dimanche! ("Fun Sunday!") is a 1935 short film (21 minutes), directed by Jacques Berr, co-written by and co-starring Jacques Tati.Two unnamed bums (Jacques Tati and a comedian named Rhum) are thrown out of a subway station where they were apparently sleeping. Looking for a way to get some cash, they acquire an open-air bus and put out a sign advertising a day trip out to the country to see "the chateau". They scam some unwitting tourists into their bus and make their way into the country, only to prove themselves comically inept tour guides.Surprisingly similar to the sort of silent comedy that Tati would become famous for nearly 20 years later with Mr. Hulot's Holiday.

Sound-Effect Bleep: As Rhum points out the attractions of the village, the names of the various buildings he describes are censored by a sort of kazoo squawk.

Railroad Tracks of Doom: Where does the bus stall out? On the railroad tracks, of course. Tati, Rhum, and hteir customers just barely escape before an oncoming train totally destroys the car.

Off-into-the-Distance Ending: The car is blasted to bits by a train. The short ends with Tati, Rhum, and their party conducting a tour on foot, in the same formation that they were in inside the car, Tati still holding the steering wheel. The movie ends with the two bums and the tourists walking away down the road.

Big Guy, Little Guy: Rhum is rather short while Tati is a large and physically imposing man. Naturally Rhum seems to be the one in charge (he's the actual tour guide, while Tati drives the bus).

comment
The Alleged Car: The bus that our heroes acquire turns out to be a rattling old jalopy. The radiator hisses steam, the horn sounds spontaneously, and when one customer jumps into the bus he goes right through the floor with his feet hitting the ground. Finally, the car stalls out—on the railroad tracks.
