French director, screenwriter, producer, actor, and film critic, François Truffault, was one of the most influential and prolific filmmakers to come out of France in the second half of the twentieth century. Truffault, along with Jean-Luc Godard, pioneered French New Wave cinema, and his semi-autobiographic, cinematic alter-ego, Antoine Doniel (Jean-Pierre Leaud), central character of five films over twenty years (the first being the seminal "The 400 Blows"[1959]), defined a generation.
