The Film Soundtracks in Our Lives, Part II: Composer Maurice Jaubert and Auteur François Truffaut

In the last T-Boy article, The Film Soundtracks in Our Lives, Part II – Traveling Boy, we covered the source of many of our favorite musical soundtracks in film. The titles ranged from Alfred Hitchcock & Bernard Herrmann's Psycho to Richard Lester & The Beatles' A Hard Day's Night. In Part II, we discuss the relationship between film director Francoise Truffaut and composer Maurice Jaubert in Le Chambre Verte,L’Histoire d’Adèle, L’Homme qui aimait les femmes and Argent de poche; Jaubert’s first piano prize; banned films during the Nazi occupation of France, saved by Henri Langlois et la Cinémathèque française; Maurice Ravel as Jaubert’s best man at his wedding; and La Nouvelle Vague and the politique des auteurs.
