merry christmas mr bean

traditions come and go but while they're alive they are the backbone to our deeper experiencing of events. mr bean's christmas entered my world several years ago and has been a feature of christmas ever since. with its very english humour founded well inside the very french visual humour of jacques tatis' creation, monsieur hulot, mr bean (aka rowan atkinson) nails many of the iconic christmas experiences and turns them in on themselves, all the while poking fun at himself, us, and the world at large for being so serious about itself.

here in three grainy renditions is the sum total of mr bean's christmas!
