His other notable films include Shoot the Piano Player (1960), Jules and Jim (1962), The Soft Skin (1964), The Wild Child (1970), Two English Girls (1971), The Last Metro (1980), and The Woman Next Door (1981). He played one of the main roles in Steven Spielberg 's Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977).
- Les Quatre Cents Coups (1959) Intended to be an anthology vignette set during the occupation, the shoestring feature that ignited the nouvelle vague is rooted heavily in Truffaut’s own experiences.
- Shoot the Piano Player (1960) Lacing David Goodis’s hardboiled novel Down There with the frantic zaniness of the Marx Brothers and Raymond Queneau, Truffaut’s sophomore outing was a gleeful grab bag of tropes, tones and techniques that came closest to translating his critical theories into cinematic practice.
- Jules et Jim (1962) Accompanied by the exquisite melodies of Georges Delerue, this timeless adaptation of Henri-Pierre Roche’s novel surprisingly suggested the compatibility of the nouvelle vague and the ‘tradition of quality’ that Truffaut had railed against in his 1954 Cahiers essay, ‘A Certain Tendency in French Cinema’.
- La Peau douce (1964) A delay in shooting his sole English-language venture, Fahrenheit 451 (1966), afforded the opportunity to make this adulterous saga, which reveals the influence of Alfred Hitchcock, with whom Truffaut had just conducted a book-length interview.
Along with Jean-Luc Godard, Truffaut was one of the most influential figures of the French New Wave, inspiring directors such as Steven Spielberg, Quentin Tarantino, Brian De Palma, Martin Scorsese and Wes Anderson.
