François Truffaut On Roberto Rosselini & Alfred Hitchcock

[avidspots]

I wish I was alive in the 1959 when the movement began.

Thank you so much for this! A lot of the nouvelle vague is pure shit (Godard!) but Truffaut, Chabrol, Malle are astonishing! (And let's not forget their forgotten forefathers Duvivier and Renoir...)

Fuck! Truffaut was a geezer...

[cineasta71]

Truffaut was for sure an alumni of the great master Rossellini...

@cineasta71 To some degree, but I'd suggest the influence is certainly far less pronounced beyond 'The 400 Blows' (the formal play of 'Shoot The Piano Player' is almost a reaction against documentary realism).

He is a real master of cinema ! i love truffaut !

[snuffymccrack]

Of course AFI would fuck up Roberto Rossellini's name.

Delightful to hear him speak again. It's like he was here today. Truffaut and his films are always entertaining and insightful. . . In the interview Truffaut refers to Roberto Rossellini, of course, not the Robert Rosselli in the title of the video.

The 400 Blows is an amazing film, but I was underwhelmed by jules And Jim.
