Francois Truffaut crafts an intensely moving tale of a neglected adolescent, who drifts into a world of petty crime. One of the French New Age classics.

    @ Sameer: Do watch it, it is really a movie to be seen.

    @ Arthi: I guess basically the climax, is a kind oof metaphor for the protagonists escape from his earlier life. His looking out at the sea, is that he is looking into a new future, of not which he is sure.

    You had same type of climax in Cast Away, when Tom Hanks, stands at the cross roads, waiting for a vehicle, indicating his life too.
