Classic of Truffaut

Classic of Truffaut

3 films

French New Wave pioneer François Truffaut made an unforgettable debut with The 400 Blows, winning Best Director at the Cannes Film Festival.
This semi-autobiographical film marked the beginning of his celebrated “Antoine Doinel” series, chronicling a boy’s journey from youth to adulthood.
The 400 Blows not only ignited the French New Wave—it remains one of Truffaut’s most iconic masterpieces.

In Jules and Jim, a love triangle between two men and a woman unfolds with poetic grace, establishing Truffaut’s reputation as a creator of utopian romances.
Later in his career, The Last Metro—set in Nazi-occupied Paris—won the César Award for Best Film and stands as a mature, poignant work from his final years.

Giloo presents a curated selection of three essential Truffaut films—timeless classics from a filmmaker who reshaped the language of cinema, in France and beyond.
