Maid in Manhattan

A man with a low IQ has accomplished great things in his life and been present during significant historic events—in each case, far exceeding what anyone imagined he could do. But despite all he has achieved, his one true love eludes him.

A single mother escapes a dark past to a small town. As she begins to build a new life, she comes across an outlaw looking for redemption.

A small-time hood must choose from among love, friendship and the chance to rise within the mob.

The third in a series of films featuring François Truffaut's alter-ego, Antoine Doinel, the story resumes with Antoine being discharged from military service. His sweetheart Christine's father lands Antoine a job as a security guard, which he promptly loses. Stumbling into a position assisting a private detective, Antoine falls for his employers' seductive wife, Fabienne, and finds that he must choose between the older woman and Christine.

An average family is thrust into the spotlight after the father commits a seemingly self-defense murder at his diner.
