The 400 Blows
Directed by
François Truffaut
François Truffaut’s stunning leap from influential film critic to vanguard of the French New Wave remains one of the finest childhood memoirs ever committed to film.
Told through the eyes of François Truffaut’s cinematic counterpart Antoine Doinel (Jean-Pierre Léaud), THE 400 BLOWS sensitively re-creates the trials of Truffaut’s own childhood, unsentimentally portraying aloof parents, oppressive teachers, and petty crime.
“One of the most intensely touching stories ever made about a young adolescent.” – Roger Ebert
