If you loved The Bride Wore Black, try Shoot the Piano Player

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by François Truffaut, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Bride Wore Black, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Shoot the Piano Player is

Midnight. A fogged-over jazz piano in a Paris backroom. A former prodigy now hides in dive-bar music by day, fear by night. Truffaut’s playful noir twists hope into hazard—comedy in the chase, tragedy in the keys.
