...flourish even after he started taking pictures of (literally) shit. The two are married in a wedding ceremony conducted by the reverend of the First Existential Church (Motto: "Christ died for our sins. Dare we make his martyrdom meaningless by not committing them?"), who defines honor to the bride as "not cutting (your husband's balls...
...Franklin (Howard Da Silva) portrayed? Foxy good sense, a plaguy gout, a dash of smarmy lechery and a few jokes about electricity-that is all one needs for Franklin. And that is precisely what one gets. As for Thomas Jefferson (Ken Howard), he pines for his bride. Only her presence permits him to wield the quill of independence.

Stolen Kisses is Truffaut's newest and gentlest film, a lovely memory of adolescence that begins with the delight of youth and ends with...
...quote Mario Puzo quoting Honoré de Balzac: "Behind every great fortune there is a crime." When Puzo gets around to updating Balzac's ever so slight overstatement, he has the youngest and smartest son of the oldest and smartest New York Mafia boss tell his lank Yankee bride: "In my history course at Dartmouth we did some background on all the Presidents and they had fathers and grandfathers who were lucky they didn't get hanged...
