Francois Truffaut in conversation in 1977 with Richard Roud, then Director of the New York Film Festival. Truffaut, director of âJules and Jim,â âThe Four Hundred Blows, etc. was in America for the premier of âThe Man Who Loved Womenâ at the 15th NYFF.

Apparently a French-only version was made as well but havenât been able to find it other than a clip of it so this version with English voice-over will have to do for now, if anyone has the full version in French please share it!
