400 Blows Extra Credit

The film 400 Blows was a strange film. It was spoken in French, making the film more difficult to understand. I found it tricky to follow the subtitles and watch the movie at the same time. The beginning of the story was not intriguing; a student was punished at school, and it seemed that there was no plot. My first impression was that I was not going to like this movie because it was boring and an old movie. I was not used to the film being played in black and white, or in a foreign country. My opinion changed as the movie progressed. I did not think that the film reflected a memoir; there were not any reflections on the character’s behaviors or looking back on his actions. Regardless of the strange vibe that the movie sent, there were many lessons that it taught.
