400 Blows – Film Noir

Directed by:

Francois Truffaut

Written by:

Francois Truffaut

Marcel Moussy

Starring:

Jean-Pierre Leaud

This is a widely acclaimed movie which has influenced many films of the era and stands the test of time.  It is an old film and is in all black and white.  The film follows Antoine Doinel, a troubled 12 year old kid, growing up in Paris, France.  He has frequent conflicts at school and at home, at times, getting into petty crime.  The trailer is below and give it a full watch if you get a chance, and would enjoy an old film classic.  The film is available with English subtitles.  The first time I watched this was on CBC as a young buck.  Give your opinions on it once you watch it.
