Movie Reviews of Love on the Run
Movie Review: Puzzle of Love
Summary: 3 Stars
I enjoyed Truffant's early work, "400 Blows" and "Jules and Jim". They are real landmarks in Cinema, the "French New Wave," but by 1979 Truffant seems to be autobiographical with kiss and tell scenerios. His failures in love are examined. His final success in relationship is a clever romatic answer to a puzzle, a torn photograph of his latest lover. It's not overly convincing, but nobody makes movies with so much poetic conceit as the French. The women are beautiful, but I must say that the two blondes are difficult to tell apart and the captioning does not help. This is a date flick for college educated guy and gal, very romantic and sexy without the plumbing.
Summary of Love on the Run
This was Fran?ois Truffaut's last film in the Antoine Doinel series (the character followed from The 400 Blows to Bed and Board). Doinel is again played by Jean-Pierre L?aud as a bad boy whose own obsessions with his mother greatly affect his relationships with women. Here, our compulsive liar and general scamp is found out, time and time again, but, as the women of the film find, it's impossible to blame him entirely. In fact, it seems a French badge of honor to have your mistress show up at your door. The film stands on its own as a light and gentle comedy but carries much more resonance if watched in its proper place and order in the series. It also stars the devastatingly gorgeous Marie-France Pisier as an old acquaintance who calls Doinel on the carpet. --Keith SimantonArt House & International DVD Video
