Day for Night

on BBC Two England

starring Jacqueline Bisset Jean-Pierre Aumont Valentina Cortese
Truffaut's affectionate celebration of film-making is set in the Victorine Studios in Nice where Meet Pamela is being shot. Truffaut himself plays the harassed director faced with making a film with a star with a history of nervous breakdowns, another who cannot remember two consecutive lines of dialogue, financial backers who impose impossible shooting schedules and a series of emotional crises among the cast and crew.
Screenplay by FRANCOIS TRUFFAUT
