It's as lucid and wryly witty a film as you could wish for, uncluttered by superfluous period detail. A beautiful use of simple techniques - black-and-white photography, Vivaldi music, even devices as outmoded as the iris - give it a very refreshing quality.

Unlike any other film Truffaut has ever made, yet only Truffaut could have made it. It is a lovely, pure film. And it may be a classic.

Ty Burr 03 Jul 1991

Nearly four decades after its release, The Wild Child remains startling for its humane clarity, for Nestor Almendros's brilliant black-and-white photography, and for the sense that Truffaut is achieving filmmaking mastery on a very small scale.

Steven Rea 23 Mar 1997

One of Francois Truffaut's best middle-period films, albeit one of his darkest and most conservative.

David Parkinson 12 Apr 1979

A typical older male mentore story...told with sensitivity and perceptiveness.
