Leave your thoughts about Bed and Board.
| New York TimesVincent CanbyI can't help believing that François Truffaut's latest Antoine Doinel comedy, Bed and Board, will turn out to be one of the loveliest, most intelligent movies we'll see in all of 1971. |
| Las Vegas Review-JournalCarol ClingThe continuing enchanting adventures of Antoine Doinel; not quite a Truffaut classic, but close. |
| Q Network Film DeskJames KendrickThere is a sense of community in this film that was somewhat lacking in the previous Doinel films, as Truffaut emphasizes reoccurring characters and their relations to each other in the small neighborhood where Antoine and Christine live. |
| VarietyVariety StaffIt is 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. |
| AV ClubKeith PhippsThe sadness of the film's decaying domesticity keeps undermining it, giving it the air of a melancholy B-side to what's come before. |
| Matt's Movie ReviewsMatthew PejkovicBed and Board is a charming, pleasant and touching film, and the best sequel of the series. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrThe film is entertaining and discreetly sentimental, though perhaps a little too flattering to the fantasies of the young adult audience. |
| User ReviewNelson PThe continuing enchanting adventures of Antoine Doinel; not quite a Truffaut classic, but close. |
