Will G A great French New Wave director. Truffaut is a fantastic director. I also liked his film “The 400 Blows”. There was romance and a man liked multiple women. It was nice to see France and practice my French. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/10/25 Full Review Alexsander F Um filme que é uma obra de arte, um quadro em movimentos, em planos sequências. Um filme francês da época dos filmes abstratos, complexos e subjetivos que não são fáceis de se entender, mas Truffaut não é para se entender, e sim contemplar, assistir em estado de graça, igual aos filmes do Godard. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/08/24 Full Review Audience Member (G) 7.8 [François Truffaut] Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This is probably the most elegant, beautiful, and erotic of all the films in Truffaut's pantheon of work. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Peculiar, and long, and yet it stays with you. The Welsh countryside is a beautiful contrast with Paris, and the characters natural to those environments have interactions that keep you interested. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Leisurely Truffaut film is well-acted but the matter-of-fact narrative is, at times, off-putting.
