I got a lot of interesting background information on Truffaut and his cast and crew. However, anyone who listens to the track from starts to finish will find the historian horribly repeatitive. He constantly reaffirms the relationship of the people he quotes. Besides that little agitation I found this track good.
Commentary 2: Co-writer Marcel Moussy and Robert Lachenay (friend of director Francois Truffaut) Rating:6.0/10 (2 votes) [graph]Login to vote or review
