A true classic. "The Green Room" should be seen by anybody interested in French cinema. Featuring the well known shot of Truffaut standing behind a door, this movie has the director playing a man obsessed with dead people that he once knew. What's most interesting is the low budget feel (the movie looks like it was filmed on 16mm), and the way every scene is subdued (only the memorable music changes pace). The letdown is that there's no real indication of the time setting (late 1920s). An intelligent, watchable and likeable work. Tremendous opening credits sequence.
