Working for the first time in color and in English, Francois Truffaut directs an adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s dystopian novel about a future where the printed word is banned and firemen burn books. Oskar Werner plays a fireman who is slowly seduced by forbidden literature, while Julie Christie, in dual roles, plays both his wife and his confidant. Unjustly neglected, this was Truffaut’s love letter to the world of books and features an impressionistic score by Bernard Herrmann and one of the most moving final scenes in the history of cinema.
