Director François Truffaut’s incisive and entertaining 1977 romantic comedy L’homme qui aimait les femmes [The Man Who Loved Women] boasts a subtle and touching central performance by Charles Denner as Bertrand Morane, the obsessed Frenchman […]
L’Enfant Sauvage [The Wild Child] ***** (1969, François Truffaut, Jean-Pierre Cargol) – Classic Movie Review 3016
Director François Truffaut’s 1969 masterwork is a superbly handled, brilliantly evocative re-creation of the 1790s true-life story of Doctor Jean Itard, the behavioural scientist who tames and teaches Victor de l’Aveyron (Jean-Pierre Cargol), a feral boy […]

Co-writer/director François Truffaut’s 12th film from 1972 is a comfortable and familiar-feeling black comedy but it is not at all compelling or distinguished. It stars Bernadette Lafont, the lead of his very first film, Les Mistons, […]
Fahrenheit 451 **** (1966, Julie Christie, Oskar Werner, Cyril Cusack, Anton Diffring, Jeremy Spenser, Bee Duffell, Michael Balfour, Ann Bell) – Classic Movie Review 3012
François Truffaut’s love of books shines through his thoroughly compelling and intriguing adaptation from Ray Bradbury’s 1953 novel of his 1984-style sci-fi story about a typically oppressive, dystopian future world where books have been outlawed […]
