Description

Plays Monday, April 17 at 7:00 PM. Francois Truffaut pulls back the curtain on filmmaking with this chronicle of the melodrama both on and off screen during the production of a film. Truffaut bends the fourth wall with his appearance as the film-within-the-film’s director. Considered by many to be one of Truffaut’s greatest films.

Programmer's Note

It’s Truffaut; everything that’s true about Fellini holds true here. The film is all about an auteur working at the height of his prowess. This is the culmination of French New Wave--a movie about making a movie. Plus it’s a really good film.
