Baisers volés
Christine Darbon, portrayed by actress Claude Jade, first appears in the life of Antoine in "Stolen Kisses". Subsequently she appeared in two more films, "Bed and Board" (now Christine Doinel) and "Love on the Run", where, after divorcing Doinel, she again becomes Christine Darbon. Truffaut uses the occasion to examine three states, three ages, of the woman: loved from afar ("Stolen Kisses"), married and misled ("Bed and Board"), and divorced but still on good terms ("Love on the Run"). Christine is characterized by her good behavior, the promptness of her glance, and a sense of sacrifice which is by no means "tragic". In the film "Love on the Run", Antoine and Christine were the first couple in the country to divorce under a new law allowing dissolution of a marriage by mutual consent.
