Editorial
François Truffaut was commissioned to make this short film for the Parisian section of the 1962 omnibus of films about love, Love At Twenty. Jean-Pierre Léaud returns to the semi-autobiographical role of Antoine Doinel from The 400 Blows. And what do we find? A mischievous, tormented adolescent.
