Film series: Nouvelle vague 💠 A short history of the French new wave

Director François Truffaut, Protected content , France 💠 Protected content , 35mm, B&W, rated PG

François Truffaut’s immortal ménage à trois stars Jeanne Moreau as a free-spirited bohemian who attracts the attention of two friends, a shy Austrian and an exuberant Frenchman. Buoyed by rumbustious energy, the film follows their love triangle across several decades, from early sun-kissed holidays to sombre reunions in the wake of the First World War. Truffaut delights in experimentation, with a barrage of freeze frames and fast cuts that express the push-and-pull of their whirlwind union. An ode to the stylistic possibilities of the medium, this beloved classic doubles as a valentine to Moreau, the astonishing actress who Truffaut once called ‘the greatest sweetheart in French cinema’.
