Truffaut's visibility is much higher than that of Rohmer and Godard.

4.5. Fragmented poetry movies are more extreme works, with sad and melodious music, giving people a relaxed and comfortable feeling, much better than Rohmer and Godard.

The original cast of "Dream of Paris" trio.

The relationship between foreigners is really different, full of individual respect for the individual, and the concept of marriage and family is basically zero.

Although it is a life romance, the pace is rarely fast.

notes:

Since then, he has abandoned the extreme realist proposition that "movies are a series of specific moments in life without prioritization", and returned to plot narration and dramatic deconstruction of life.

When it comes to love, the girls are professionals and the guys are amateurs.

Truffaut's filming of this otherwise unattractive novel can serve as a model case for literary adaptation. Roger's original work was cut down drastically, but he wrote a dialogue full of details on the basis of the original story outline.

It's an almost absurd triangle, but we don't feel hypocritical, ugly, obscene, or immoral in the slightest. Why? Because the world is hypocritical, ugly, obscene, and immoral. Those who seek true love are innocent and fearless.

In this film, Truffaut doesn't like to be sloppy, the character introduction and some transitional plots are replaced by fast editing, the description of the emotional variables between the three people is slowed down, and Catherine's suicide by car is not like in traditional production. Too much foreshadowing and characterization. Overall, it's a "new wave" movie viewing experience.

Gosh Jules, I don't believe anyone could love someone like that. Let's push freedom to the limit and see what happens. It turns out that in the ultimate freedom, everyone is not free.

    Forgive me, first of all, I have always sneered at this kind of story that is dominated by women and separated between two men, and secondly, whether Truffaut or Godard, for the new wave, my aesthetic is unacceptable, and this This kind of literary film has been unable to mobilize the endorphins and hormones in the heart. Therefore, the literary film should be watched less and should be watched carefully, because it will cause fatigue.

    I am not afraid that you will fail me, I am afraid that love will fail me.
