write & direct the groundbreaking, semi-autobiographical 'les 400 coups', which introduced an iconic final freeze-frame shot. in spite of his goal to direct 30 films before retiring to write books, francois died at the age of 52 (& just five films short of his target). even godard - with whom he famously fell out in '68 - paid tribute to truffaut's mastery.

'film lovers are sick people.'
/#history: i hope you like him, 'cause you're getting a tonne of truffaut (born in 1932) from me. :)
recogised by sci-fi nerds as the scientist, claude lacombe, in spielberg's 'close encounters of the third kind', francois was one of the founders of the nouvelle vague - the french new wave of cinema. he started his career as a film critic for the esteemed journal, 'cahiers du cinema' & went on to (cont)...

January 9: Coming of Age

Les 400 Coups (The 400 Blows)- 1959
directed by Francois Truffaut

Truffaut's enormously influential first film was a game-changer for the way the adolescent experience was depicted in movies. In his words, he wanted: “not to depict adolescence from the usual viewpoint of sentimental nostalgia, but…to show it as the painful experience that it is.”

Retro SciFi Film of the Week…

Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)

When this film came out, its depiction of the aliens seemed very realistic, and it has held up pretty well considering it was released nearly a half-century ago. Most of the special effects (by Douglas Trumbull) still seem real, and the dialogue and narrative still seem plausible. The acting performances and score are world class.

This film marked a change in the depiction of aliens in science fiction. Ever since the broadcast of War of the Worlds in 1938, aliens who came to Earth were almost always shown as aggressive and as conquerors or colonizers. This film, released shortly after the Vietnam War had ended, was different.

As with nearly all films of the time, this 1977 film had significant racial bias in the composition of the cast, so you’ll need to keep that in mind as you watch it. I saw only one black character in the film, a flight controller who had just a few lines in one scene. (Nearly all of Spielberg’s films have racial bias, even those produced well into the 21st century.)

In terms of production quality and story, this is one of the best science fiction films ever made and if you haven’t seen it yet, make a point of seeing this one.

We are losing so much cinema history with platforms like , Prime, etc. streaming for the average viewer.

Here is that great scene from François 'La Nuit Américaine' (music: Georges Delerue, play loud!) which shows you the painstaking process involved in filming when celluloid film strips ruled the waves.

One of my favourite characters in Baisers volés is M. Tabard who hires a detective to find out why people don't like him.

Lecture choc

«Ensuite je me suis rassemblé et réconcilié avec moi-même grâce à La Nuit Américaine qui concerne simplement ma raison de vivre (Vous adorez votre mère, je hais la mienne, même morte, comment pourrions-nous avoir deux idées en commun ?)»

Lettre de François
où il explique à Jean-Louis , alors plus journaliste qu'écrivain, ce qu'est un "auteur". Il décrit sa propre trajectoire, avec ses succès et ses échecs, mais toujours en accord avec ses principes créateurs (1974)
