Wellspring
Directed by: François Truffaut
The fourth installment in François Truffaut’s chronicle of the ardent, anachronistic Antoine Doinel, Bed and Board plunges his hapless creation once again into crisis. Expecting his first child and still struggling to find steady employment, Doinel (Jean-Pierre Léaud) involves himself in a relationship with a beautiful Japanese woman that threatens to destroy his marriage. Lightly comic, with a touch of the burlesque, Bed and Board is a bittersweet look at the travails of young married life and the fine line between adolescence and adulthood.

Release Notes on Restoration
Bed and Board
Bed and Board is presented in its original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.66:1. This new digital transfer was created from masters provided by MK2. The soundtrack was mastered at 24-bit; audio restoration tools were used to reduce clicks, pops, hiss, and crackle. To further enhance the image, the MTI digital restoration system was used to remove thousands of instances of dirt, debris, and scratches.
