  TakePart Social Action Network — Authority: 612
  I’ve mentioned a few times on this site how much I adore François Truffaut and his films.  In his 52 years with us (he died quite young) Truffaut worked hard to explore what cinema was/is and how it could be better and how it could be something for everyone.  He once said “Is cinema more important than ...
