The film is comprised of several flawlessly observed episodes and Paris has never looked so nice or its inhabitants so whimsically attractive. Dedicated to Henri Langlois head of the Paris Cinematheque who was nearly sacked by de Gaulle it was made at the time of the political upheavals of 1968 in which Truffaut was directly involved. But the film itself betrays an amazing serenity in such troubled times transforming the anxiety and pain into a sad lyricism."
#SBS Ondemand Film Review - Stolen Kisses (Francois Truffaut)

A persuasively charming comedy (the third instalment of the Antoine Doinel saga) in which Leaud wanders into a job as a private detective and falls hopelessly and idealistically in love with a client's wife.
