Truffaut's first feature-length film met with great approval from his critics.

A somwhat autobiographical story of Truffaut's own childhood, The 400 Blows tells the story of Antoine Doinel, a 14-year-old schoolboy. Antoine is not a good student and always seems to be in trouble at school. At home he is disregarded by his parents, who have better things to do. He starts to play truant and spends a lot of his time in cinemas. But he soon finds that his parents will not tolerate this behaviour.

jean-pierre leaud is truffaut stand-in antoine doinel, here an unhappy child taking refuge in the freedom of the cinema and the bleakness of petty crime. thematically grim, but joyous moviemaking this is classic french cinema 10/10.

 Best French New Wave Film Ever.

This has to be up there with the best films ever made. It is brilliant. Everything about it is second to none, the direction, the acting, the cinematography. Francois Truffaut has made something that should be watched by everyone, old and young all around the world. The young boy who acts as Doinel is outstanding and even as one so young he keeps you watching from the start right until the end. A heartwarming story made brilliantly.
