Antoine et Colette (1962)


After indulging in much delinquency in his youth, seventeen year old Antoine Doinel, having been provided opportunity to get out of that delinquent life, is now an upstanding member of society working for Philips Records, which allows him to indulge in his love of music.

Truffaut's contribution to the omnibus film L'amour à vingt ans is Truffaut's first congenial continuation of his Doinel saga and manages to tell a gripping story of love forlorn in half an hour.
