PLAYING HOOKY

PLAYING HOOKY (from the 400 BLOWS) by Jean Constantin.

The very first week of this blog's existence we posted a song from the 400 Blows. In it I talked about sneaking over and catching a double feature of Truffaut films at the Film Forum. I wouldn't say we've come full circle or anything, but I thought I'd post another song from that soundtrack. This one's called Playing Hooky.

It's a little more typical go-go French early 60s style, just little variations on a jazzy riff (just like Cassius Clay's tune from a couple years later, as a matter of fact).

LISTEN.
