The 100 Blows.

Head over to PopMatters where we're still counting down on the 100 greatest directors of all time.

This time around I discussed Francois Truffaut one of my three all time favorite directors. It's so tough not to be extremely reverential when you love someone like I love him. Sigh.

With that said, have you been reading the series?
What's your favorite Truffaut movie?

Can't argue with those choices, Tom!

I'd say Day for Night is my favourite too, even though it's less indicative of his career as a whole.

I haven't read your post at Pop Matters yet, but I have say, he's in my top five directors of all time too. I was blown away (no pun intended) by The 400 Blows.
I think it's one of the most moving films ever made about children.

The chap is completely right, and there's no skepticism.
