Highly influential French director and film scholar (1932–1984) who was one of the leading lights of the French “New Wave” of the 1950s and 1960s. Among his best-known films are The 400 Blows (1959), Jules and Jim (1962), and Day for Night (1973). Art-house-phobic American audiences likely remember him best as the sympathetic scientist Lacombe in Steven Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Felt tip signature and inscription on an off-white 6 x 3 slip, with a small photo of Truffaut affixed to left edge. In very fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
