Coloring flowers

Your own business?

No... I work for a florist

Look like hard work

They say it takes

a lazy man to work hard

Married?

Yes, I live here...

Hear that violin?

My wife...

She gives lessons

Ah, a musician

You always did like music...

and nice bourgeois girls!

I never looked at it that way

For me,

it's not just the girl...

It's her family:
father, mother...

I enjoy parents...

when they're not my own!

That your truck out front?

Can't park there

I gave you a ticket. Want two?

Sure, Dad, make it a pair!

I'm supposed to fix a TV set

You know a... Desdoigts?

M. Desbois... up there

That's funny...

Maybe he's gone out

I'd be surprised...

He hasn't, for 25 years

Sort of voluntary confinement

Says he won't go out till

Marshal who is...

Marshal Juin?

No, the one who ran France

during the war

Marshal Petain!

Won't go out till Marshal Petain...

is buried in Verdun!

Where is he?

The TV repairman is here

About time! Hurry up!

Take it easy!

How's Josianne?

Didn't you marry her?

No. She quit work to marry...

an astronaut!

"Big pay and always away!"

She lives on Avenue Foch!

She's got it made!

He married her

because he knocked her up

I think she let herself...

because... yeah, you get me?

Excuse me... be right back!

You're getting good!

Thanks to Mme. Doinel...

I can never tell whether

it's my wife or Marianne playing

Soon you'll give the lessons...

and my wife will pay you!

Oh, I forgot to pay your wife!

It doesn't matter...

Yes, yes!

I forgot last time too!

No hurry...

Two lessons

Well, thank you... goodbye...

Hello... What's that?

A library staircase

You got 30 francs?

Heavy?

No...

What are you doing?

Practicing

Why up there?

To get used to heights

I got panicky at my last concert...

Iooking into the orchestra pit

I was really just dizzy...

so I'm practicing

What are you doing!

I'm thinking...

I'll bet!.. Let me get down

Close your eyes

Oh, no! I know you!

Nothing's further from my mind...

I won't touch you!

Promise?

Scout's honor!

You were never a boy scout!

You bet I wasn't!

Close your eyes!

Eyes closed?

Now open them

What's that?

A library staircase.

I've always wanted one

We don't have a library!

Have to begin somewhere...

I have a surprise for you...

The Senator came through!

We've got our telephone!

Not bad...

I told Lucien

you'd write the Senator

Before I thank him... does it work?

What do I dial to find out the time?

Odeon 84-00

Cochin Hospital?

Sorry, wrong number!

I got a hospital!

Dial the hospital

and see what you get

How's the letter?

Almost finished

Can I read it?

"Thanks for getting us,

in one week..."

"what others wait years for!"

François Truffaut

François Roland Truffaut (French: [fʁɑ̃.swa ʁɔ.lɑ̃ tʁyfo]; 6 February 1932 – 21 October 1984) was a French film director, screenwriter, producer, actor, and film critic, as well as one of the founders of the French New Wave. In a film career lasting over a quarter of a century, he remains an icon of the French film industry, having worked on over 25 films. Truffaut's film The 400 Blows came to be a defining film of the French New Wave movement, and was followed by four sequels, Antoine et Colette, Stolen Kisses, Bed and Board, and Love on the Run between 1958 and 1979. Truffaut's 1973 film Day for Night earned him critical acclaim and several awards, including the BAFTA Award for Best Film and the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. His other notable films include Shoot the Piano Player (1960), Jules et Jim (1961), The Wild Child (1970), Two English Girls (1971), and The Woman Next Door (1981). more…
