When I was studying to be a director, we studied a lot about François Truffaut and his legacy. I even did research on him. Academichelp helped me a lot then. This is a specialized site that helps students with essays. In general, it is now easy to find information on any topic and write research. There are also many forums, like this one for example https://www.revitcity.com/downloads.php?action=view&object_id=22864 I love movies, especially classics.
The answer to both your questins (samlowery and Dolwphin) is at the end of the "source" link:
François Truffaut (1932-1984), perhaps the most respected member of the New Wave group of French moviemakers, left a legacy of beloved and influential films that include The 400 Blows, Jules and Jim, Stolen Kisses, Day for Night, and The Story of Adele H. Equally fascinating is the very large body of film criticism Truffaut wrote over many years for Cahiers du Cinema and other leading film journals. Wonderfully varied, personal, and informal, these reviews all communicate unabashed love for and an enormous excitement about the movies. The Films in My Life is Truffaut’s own selection of more than one hundred essays that range widely over the history of film and pay tribute to Truffaut’s particular heroes, among them Hitchcock, Welles, Chaplin, Renoir, Cocteau, Bergman, and Buñuel.

Didn't realize 80% of this list was from 1952-1963. That's not nearly a large enough range for a list like this to be official. Disappointing.Maxss

"Didn't realize 80% of this list was from 1952-1963. That's not nearly a large enough range for a list like this to be official. Disappointing."There are 11 IMDb decade lists.
