Bed and Board

FIRST TRUFFAUT GAVE US THE 400 BLOWS. THEN STOLEN KISSES... AND NOW BED AND BOARD.

Parisian everyman Antoine Doinel has married his sweetheart Christine Darbon, and the newlyweds have set up a cozy domestic life of selling flowers and giving violin lessons while Antoine fitfully works on his long-gestating novel. As Christine becomes pregnant with the couple's first child, Antoine finds himself enraptured with a young Japanese beauty. The complications change the course of their relationship forever.

Reviews:

  • Emmett Frederick
    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.
    Rating: 1.5

  • Anais Hunt
    An overhyped movie that failed to deliver. I didn’t connect with the characters or the plot.

    An absolute masterpiece! The plot twists kept me on the edge of my seat, and the performances were top-notch.

    The soundtrack was the highlight of the film. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie fell flat.

    The perfect blend of action, humor, and heart. One of the best movies I've seen in years.
