Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Francois Truffaut's "The Soft Skin" is being revived at the very moment when it seems uncannily prophetic
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,

fresh:
Francois Truffaut's fourth feature, The Soft Skin, has never gotten much respect -- even though many people (myself included) regard it as one of his best.
– J. Hoberman,
Village Voice,

fresh:
Truffaut does show that he can make a solidly carpentered film like anybody else.

fresh:
[A] steely 1964 study in the cruel mechanics of illicit love.
– David Jenkins,

rotten:
It's a curiously crude and hackneyed drama to come from Mr. Truffaut, but this way of using his actors and working his camera is up to his style.
– Bosley Crowther,
