A sweet counterpoint to Godard's Contempt, Truffaut's Day for Night is a congenial tribute to the self-afflicted madness that is making a movie.

It is a breezy, richly enjoyable if not especially profound film about cinema: it conjures the ambient, dizzy sexiness of movie artifice, and it's also notable for a remarkable cameo by Graham Greene. February 17, 2011 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

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'. February 16, 2011 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

[Day for Night is] universal in its sheer humanism, its exuberance, its tragic-comic view of people and events, and completely irresistible in its sheer love of the life it leads. June 11, 2020 | Full Review…

Somehow, in taking us behind the curtain of how movie magic is made, Truffaut gives us even more magic. Sometimes the process is just as interesting as the product. April 15, 2019 | Rating: 4/4

Aggravating to the more seriously-minded auteurs of the French New Wave, Truffaut's film is nevertheless a deeply personal, warm and human tribute to the passion of cinema. January 16, 2017 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
