Parade is a 1974 film by Jacques Tati.It does not have a story, but instead is a filmed performance of a circus. The circus has many of the acts one might expect to find in an indoor stage circus, like jugglers, a magician, a singer, and acrobats. Appearing as himself (apparently) is Jacques Tati, who is master of ceremonies for the circus, and also does some of the mime performances that first made him a star in the 1930s: a fisherman who struggles with his catch, a boxer who is overmatched, a soccer goalie, and others.Jacques Tati's last feature film. This film was originally made for Swedish television but received a limited theatrical release in France. | |

Title Drop | |
| Parade (1974) / int_18d15922 | comment |
Title Drop Tati closes his opening remarks to the audience by saying "We're all gathered around the ring of Parade!" Near the end Tati introduces a French singer, the very Edith Piaf-esque Pia Colombo, who sings a theme song for the movie. | |

Concert Film: A circus performance instead of a concert, but the same principle of a filmed stage show. | |

Stylistic Suck | |
| Parade (1974) / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: The rock band that plays in the latter portion of the film is terrible, but they're supposed to be, as the real point of the sketch is physical comedy involving the lead singer trying to grab a floating microphone. | |

Silence Is Golden | |
| Parade (1974) / int_81a1960f | comment |
Silence is Golden: Like most of Tati's films, there is little dialogue. In this case just about the only dialogue is the stage patter that Tati delivers at the start of the show and when introducing acts. | |

Art Shift | |
| Parade (1974) / int_912b24c4 | comment |
Art Shift: The film was cobbled together from footage shot on video tape (the majority of the film), 16mm, and 35mm. There are occasionally some jarring contrasts between the videotaped footage of the audience and filmed footage of some of the bigger acts. (Tati had almost no money to work with by this time, and the budget limitations in this videotaped circus performance are obvious.) | |

Stage Magician | |
| Parade (1974) / int_d9d864e2 | comment |
Stage Magician: One long routine has a stage magician, complete with top hat and cape, getting repeatedly upstaged by a set painter who comes onstage and does magic tricks of his own. Then they both get upstaged by a man in the audience. | |

Everything Is an Instrument | |
| Parade (1974) / int_e144beb6 | comment |
Everything Is an Instrument: One sequence has some of the set painters playing music by whacking paint cans with hammers. Another, even more extraordinary sequence has a man play a recognizable tune by controlling the squeak of air venting out of a blow-up balloon. | |

| Parade (1974) / int_fd9763d3 | comment |
Non-Ironic Clown: Just about the only place where a clown can be non-ironic, namely, an actual circus. They do the typical tricks and pratfalls one might expect of a clown. | |
