My favorite scene (strolling man at the window) Spoilers
I like when the the strolling man and his wife go by the window of the masked ball and the man chances to look in and sees Hulot dancing with Martine and this man who has shown himself in the movie to be clearly world-weary all the way up till now suddenly breaks a smile and then walks on for a few steps to catch up with his wife but then quickly comes back for one last look ----and he smiles again. It's not a smile of derision or anything negative ----for lack of a better word it seems to be joyful.
