The 400 Blows

from Screenplaying · host Western Colorado University Graduate Program in Creative Writing, The Crested Butte Film Festival

In our premiere episode, folks from Western Colorado University's Screenwriting MFA Program and The Crested Butte Film Festival take a deep dive into the French New Wave and its origins as we have a fascinating conversation about Francois Truffaut's landmark, semi-autobiographical coming-of-age film, The 400 Blows. We are grateful to the amazing Nerdwriter Video Channel for its cogent explanation of the historical forces that produced the New Wave. Our theme music is by Levgen Poltavasky at Pixabay. Our audio wizard is Mike Janowski. If you would like to receive emails informing you of our upcoming movie selections, send an email to: [email protected]
