Los 4 Golpes

A curious and very amusing short film directed and acted by François Truffaut, "Los 4 Golpes" ("The 4 Blows") presents the man and two female accomplices with a murderous plot - there might be some reasoning behind the murder since they keep reading something on the newspaper which makes the trio very made and chasing each other in this hotel/bar space. It owes its style to the silent film era and since they're all very expressive the experience is all fun and cool to see. I'll consider this a spur of the moment idea, which end up being his very last short film made, and by that time he was already an important figure in the world of cinema with classics such as "The 400 Blows" and "Shoot the Piano Player", so this was just something Truffaut wanted to do, show some skills, pay tribute to silent movies and make a funny movie. It's fun and it comes with a nice plot twist. 6/10.
