François TRUFFAUT. Autograph manuscript, [1984]; 1 1/2 pages in-4 in turquoise ink, with erasures and corrections.

Short scene for Vivement Dimanche: conversation between three characters (Bertrand, Yann, and the lady) preparing for the opening of a nightclub. Plus a shooting plan printed.
Attached is the typescript with autograph corrections, of Truffaut's sarcastic reply to Pierre Philippe (1 p.½ in-4 on his letterhead) who accused him of plagiarism for the screenplay of Dernier Métro: "The plot has nothing to do with Dernier Métro. The only thing it has in common is the world of entertainment during the Occupation"... Plus a file concerning his secretary at Les Films du Carrosse, Josiane Chaumeil: - 3 letters from Josiane to her "dear and revered boss" during his illness (1983-1984); - a set of press clippings about Truffaut; a l.s. from Helen Scott to Josiane (17.I.1984), concerning the American edition of Truffaut-Hitchcock; a photocopy of a text from Truffaut's youth (August 21, 1951, in-4) on the death of Louis Jouvet, and on Balzac; - a collection of useful addresses (hotels, actors, members of the technical crews depending on the films), etc.
