For Fran???ois 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 Fran???ois Truffaut: The Lost Secret is considered by many to be the best book on the interpretation of Truffaut's films.
