Jacques ___ , director, writer and star of Monsieur Hulot's Holiday (1953) (4)

I believe the answer is:

tati

(Other definitions for tati that I've seen before include "Creator of Monsieur Hulot" , "Jacques -- (Monsieur Hulot's Holiday)" , "Jacques ___ , French comic actor and film director, d. 1982" , "Jacques -, Fr. comedian" , "Jacques ----, French filmmaker" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
