Love on the run is the last film from the Antoine-Doinel cycle. Truffaut had the unique chance of using film material from twenty years of fictional biography so that Love on the run The skeleton for lush flashbacks – of course under a new context – forms. For example, the film, which does not belong to the Antoine-Doinel cycle The American night Use in which Dani plays a script volunteer in love in Léaud (as a film star Alphonse). In Love on the run Is she now Christine’s girlfriend Liliane.

One of the most amusing scenes in the film is the one in which Antoine cheats his wife after he suspects that she has a lesbian relationship with Liliane. Christine catches the two in bed and Antoine is talking that after reading his manuscript, Liliane has taken this in newspaper. That touched him so that he had to sleep with her.

The scenes in the courthouse are current. Christine learns from her lawyer Raoul Lecorps (Jean-Pierre Ducos) that couples had to write previously insulting letters with the will to divorce in mutual agreement. If you couldn’t, he (Raoul) just put them on. Shortly afterwards, however, Christine made it clear that the divorce à la Giscard d’Estaing was already used by Napoleon to get rid of Joséphine.

  • Film service: Elegant and funny, staged with the empathy of a lovingly understood.
  • Hans-Christoph Blumenberg into the time, March 2, 1979: To look at pretty pretty, mildly amusing, and of course. Staged with the discrete elegance that Truffaut is also available in his weaker work. But ultimately the film remains unsatisfactory, little more than the style exercise of a master who doesn’t want to come up with anything new that already considers his work to be completed: a film of friendly emptiness.
