Jules et Jim

François Truffaut

François Truffaut (Paris, France, 1932 - Neuilly-sur-Seine, France, 1984), after lackluster studies, various jobs and a short period in a reformatory, was invited by André Bazin to collaborate on “Cahiers du cinéma” in 1953. After making a few shorts, in 1959 his debut feature film, The 400 Blows, made him one of the protagonists of the nouvelle vague alongside Chabrol, Godard, Rivette and Rohmer. This was the start of a long and variegated filmography which made him one of the most famous and influential directors in film history.
