\u00ab In september 1958, I posted an ad in France-Soir to find a thirteen year old boy who would be The 400 Blows’ hero. (\u2026) about sixty children came, and I tried each one of them on sixteen millimeters (\u2026) Jean-Pierre L\u00e9aud was clearly standing out from the rest and, after several play-offs, I decided to give him Antoine Doinel’s part. I wouldn’t say he was the closest from myself (\u2026) Jean-Pierre was agressive, which I never was, rather submissive and possibly sneaky. He had better health than me, and above all, he had a flame, an intensity, an extraordinary desire to get the part. One could feel that his life had also been a bit dramatic, a bit tensed. In the end : he was facinating. \u00bb – Fran\u00e7ois Truffaut<\/p>\n\n\n\n
