The Wild Child
France
1970,
83 min,
35mm,
Dir: Francois Truffaut
“Suffused with Truffaut’s radiant love for the movies’ beginnings, when everything was being done for the first time, when the language was learned. It has a miraculous kind of balance: between freedom and control, originality and homage, the discovery of new experience and the contemplation of the past…Truffaut gives us an image of himself as both master and student, the image that contains all we need to know of him.” (Terrence Rafferty, The New Yorker)
