I decided to watch a series of films by François Truffaut about Antoine Doinel, the last film is called “Eliminary Love”, 1979. Antoine is already over 30, he works as a proofreader in a printing house, his book has already been published, he broke up with his wife and finally gets divorced, he has a new girlfriend, with whom, however, everything is not very smooth yet. There are also some characters from the past. It seemed to me that Truffaut did not have very smooth things with this film, otherwise it can be explained by the presence in it of so many frames from all previous films of the series and not only from them, and some episodes are repeated even in this film. Of course, people indulge in memories, so the easiest director as such was to use shots from already shot films, especially since the characters are still the same, but it still looks a little strange. However, the film was not without interest, after all, Truffaut is Truffaut, even in this version.
