    A brilliant and semi-autobiographical debut from Truffaut. The parents in this film were not unlike his own. He later said he never forgave his parents for their neglect. 10 years 11 months ago

    This seemed WAY before it's time. Easily could have been confused for something made in the late 80's. 12 years 6 months ago
