France/1970—directed by François Truffaut | 97 min.

The fourth chapter in the chronicle of Antoine Doinel finds him on the horns of a new dilemma. Struggling to find steady work while his wife is pregnant with their first child, Antoine makes a decisive move ―he jumps into an affair with another woman, convincing himself that he’s found perfection, or at least, perhaps, an escape route.

Bittersweet, comic, wise and sobering, Bed and Board steadily takes Antoine up to the fine line that separates adolescence from actual adulthood. 

Bed and Board is one of the most decent and loving films I can remember. If it doesn't provide the outcome we would have expected for Antoine, it will do.” -Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times 
 

Tickets to each of Truffaut's Antoine Doinel films showing at the DIA are available separately, but for those who want the full experience, a pass to all five films to this once-only “Antoine-a-Thon” is available here for just $20.
