Personal Quote:

What I find great in his films, is the feeling of freedom, of truth, that feeling you get along with the camera. The precise intuition he has of the truth of tiny details. The 400 Blows (1959), which I watch often, is full of details which give poetry to the movie.

Trivia:

Born on exactly the same date as Patricia Quinn of "Rocky Horror Picture Show" fame. See more »
