The fourth installment (including short film Antoine and Collette) in François Truffaut’s chronicle of the ardent Antoine Doinel (Jean-Pierre Léaud). The Doinel character's first appearance was in New Wave classic The 400 Blows.
"Expecting his first child and still struggling to find steady employment, Doinel involves himself in a relationship with a beautiful Japanese woman that threatens to destroy his marriage. Lightly comic, with a touch of the burlesque, Bed and Board is a bittersweet look at the travails of young married life and the fine line between adolescence and adulthood." (Criterion)

"Laced with little incidents, quirky characters, incisive insights and quintessentially French national traits of complacency that avoid chauvinism in Truffaut's gentle but never sentimental or indulgent treatment."
