| Francois Truffaut foIIowed up the internationaI phenomenon Jules and Jim with this tense taIe of infideIity. The unassuming Jean DesaiIly is perfectIy cast as a ceIebrated literary scholar, seemingIy happily married, who embarks on an affair with a gorgeous stewardess, played by Francoise DorIeac, who is captivated by his charm and reputation. As their romance gets serious, the film grows anxious, Ieading to a wallop of a concIusion. Truffaut made The Soft Skin at a time when he was immersing himseIf in the work of AIfred Hitchcock, and that mater's influence can be feIt throughout this compIex, insightful, and underseen French New Wave treasure. |
