This short film is the first segment of five in the multinational feature Love at Twenty (1962), all five segments on the theme of first adult love. It is also the second part of Antoine Doinel’s Saga (after The 400 Blows and before Stolen Kisses, Bed & Broad and Love on the Run). After indulging in much delinquency in his youth, seventeen-year-old Antoine Doinel, having been provided an opportunity to get out of that delinquent life, is now an upstanding member of society working for Philips Records, which allows him to indulge in his love of music. At the Youth Concerts, he has noticed the same young woman at several performances. She is Colette and the two begin to date. Colette treats Antoine like a buddy, while Antoine has fallen in love with her. His pursuit of getting Colette to be his exclusive girlfriend is helped on the surface by the fact that Colette’s parents like him and encourage their dating. He uses grand romantic gestures to try and prove his love. Will Colette ultimately fall for Antoine’s romanticism?<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n ANTOINE & COLETTE | 1962\u00a0 \u2013 32\u2032 \u2013 Comedy, Romance, Romantic Comedy, Drama, Classic.
