520 For François Truffaut, the lost secret of cinematic art is
in the ability to generate emotion and reveal repressed
fantasies through cinematic representation. Available in
English for the first time, Anne Gillain's François
Truffaut: The Lost Secret is considered by many to be the
best book on the interpretation of Truffaut's films.
Taking a psycho-biographical approach, Gillain shows how
Truffaut's creative impulse was anchored in his personal
experience of a traumatic childhood that left him lonely
and emotionally deprived. In a series of brilliant,
nuanced readings of each of his films, she demonstrates
how involuntary memories arising from Truffaut's childhood
not only furnish a succession of motifs that are repeated
from film to film, but also govern every aspect of his
mise en scène and cinematic technique.
