Obviously The 400 Blows is the best one (and like the contemporaries many a source of my fashion sense) but the other four (Antoine and Collette, Stolen Kisses, Bed and Board, Love on the Run) just have Leaud and Truffaut operating on all cylinders, delightful romcoms but also heartbreaking at times

The 400 Blows has like five sequels where Antoine Doinel grows up, and I watched all of them over the course of a week, it’s very sweet but some of them are very sad!

just some of my faves:
- One Sings, the Other Doesn't (dir. Agnes Varda)
- La Piscine (dir. Jacques Deray)
- Visages, Villages (also Varda. she is the best)
- Diabolique (dir. Henri-Georges Clouzot)
- Passages (dir. Ira Sachs. maybe not a "fave" but a modern one and def interesting!!)
- Une Femme est Une Femme (dir. Jean-Luc Godard. Only movie I've seen of his that I've liked lol my anti-rec is Breathless)

Jean Seberg is the original cool girl! Plus, Jean-Paul Belmondo! Pretty much put the French New Wave on the map. I also love Days of Heaven (1978) though Brooke Adams and Linda Manz are more doomed than anything else. But it’s aching beautiful and will haunt you in the best way. Oh, and make you want to watch all of Terrence Malick’s movies, especially Badlands (with Sissy Spacek as another amazing cool, doomed girl!) Happy watching 🤍🩶🖤

so much to talk about, the sunglasses, the scarf, the fresh baguette and coffee, the always lovely cafe setting. I think this is the most swag ever captured on camera I aspire to be at this level
