Truffaut shot to fame in 1959 with his first film "Les 400 Coups,"
a semi-autobiographical narrative shot in the low-budget
neo-realist style of the emerging "Nouvelle Vague." He went on to
make twenty-three films in twenty-six years, films which have
entertained, provoked debate and caused controversy. This fresh
appraisal of his work provides a useful socio-political
contextualization and gives an overview of his films and
film-making methods, shedding new light on key aspects such as
sexual politics, the construction of masculinity, the exploitation
of genre and the tension throughout the films between the
"absolute" and the "provisional."
