François Truffaut: the writer with the camera

Continuing on the question of adaptation, one cannot leave out a great author like François Truffaut, because no one more than he (an omnivorous reader) has tried to creatively integrate the two languages, according to a precise authorial idea, merging them to perfection. All of Truffaut's ‘inventions’ for the adaptation of Jules et Jim (1960) from Henri-Pierre Roché's novel and for that of The Green Room (1978), based on Henry James, are therefore analysed.
