    This is not a movie, this is life

    Like almost all other works of the director, in this movie, Truffaut sings life and praises life, using his sincerity, plus the enthusiasm that seems to be never used up, and finally embellished with a little bit that most of us can't reach. An extraordinary sense of humor.

    Elegant life

    I often watch movies secretly during working hours, and today I saw "Steal a Kiss". My not serious attitude towards work coincides with Antoine. He would be ashamed of calling his girlfriend, he would not be able to find the goods because he was not careful, and he would be unpretentious in front...

    Following "Soft Skin", Truffaut's iconic "freeze-frame" scene appears again in this film. In this highly "humorous" classic work, young men are bewitched and guided by mature women's "empty" temperament and "off-line" thinking - magically turning into relatively mature and witty prophets; Young women are followed and followed by mature men's "middle-level" perspective and "disengaged" state—becoming a relatively mature and knowledgeable teacher. As a child who grew up in the absence of his father, in the face of "courtship" letters from mature women, the flattered "Amateur Thief" Antoine instinctively chose the familiar way of dealing with it - stealing. However, stealing is ultimately unethical, even illegal, and ultimately punished. What is not illegal to steal? The genius gave a unanimous answer: stealing a "teacher" is not a crime. So, the film returns to the classic "triangle" structure of "love and crime and punishment": what is good to punish him? God thought about it: punish his wife for being stolen by "others"; punish him for meeting his ex when he was dating his current "Stolen Kiss"; punish him for making an "exceptional" work that satirizes the capitalist and was bought by the capitalist.

Stolen Kisses quotes

  • Georges Tabard: Do you speak English, Antoine?

    Antoine Doinel: I'm learning from records, but it's not easy.

    Georges Tabard: Records are a joke. There's only one way to learn: in bed with an English girl. It's time you learned. I learned with an Australian girl while her husband was at work painting houses.

    Fabienne Tabard: Like Hitler.

    Georges Tabard: Don't ever say Hitler was a housepainter. That's slander. Hitler painted landscapes.
