"One of the great tributes to the art of moviemaking, Truffaut has never made a film as warm or generous."

"A poem in praise of making movies. Not good movies, not bad movies -- movies."
- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
"It's a hilarious and informative movie, and in the pantheon of films about filmmaking, it strikes a neat balance between the operatic neuroses of '8 1/2' and the warm, pastel-hued nostalgia of 'Singin' in the Rain'."
- David Jenkins, Time Out
