  • Summary

  • Jackie and Greg hit the streets of Paris for François Truffaut’s THE 400 BLOWS from 1959. Topics of discussion include the autobiographical nature of the film, the generosity of Truffaut's cinema, a reflection on their own childhoods, and why it remains one of the highest peaks of the French New Wave.
