Saw this film in Jr. high french class decades ago. At the time we thought the "Gregory go boom" scene was the funniest we had ever seen and we quoted it for years afterwards.
I checked this film out from the library because it was Truffaut and had seen it on some the Friends section of Netflix. I didn't even realize I'd seen it until Gregory appeared using his baguette as a walking stick - and then that scene came rushing back to me.
The film is a bit slow. But an interesting coming of age vignettes combined with a view of 70's small town France.
Worth watching if you like French films or coming of age stories.
