La Peau douce

A successful academic's life is changed forever when a whirlwind affair throws his life into disarray, in François Truffaut's celebrated romantic drama.

Strongly influenced by the work of Jean Renoir and Alfred Hitchcock, La Peau douce is one of Truffaut's most subtle and engaging films - an exhilarating and suspenseful vision of masculinity in crisis.

Featuring a trio of exceptional lead performances and bold Raoul Coutard camerawork, this underrated masterpiece thrills and beguiles all the way until its shocking conclusion.
