An English version of the filmscript of Truffaut's motion-picture treatment of the obsessive romantic passion of Victor Hugo's younger daughter, with stills from the completed film
François Roland Truffaut was an award-winning and influential filmmaker, critically acclaimed worldwide. He was also a talented and sought-after film critic in France (most notably, his work for Cahiers du Cinema), and one of the founders of the French New Wave and the auteur theory; he remains an icon of the French film industry. In a film career lasting over a quarter of a century, he was also a screenwriter, producer or occasional actor in over twenty-five films.
When I saw this movie I was obsessed with it. My English teacher at the time got me a copy of the script- it was the first time I had ever read anything like that.
