A favorite film of filmmaker Michel Gondry as well as a major influence on Boyhood: Da Infância à Juventude (2014).
Scenes set in Pessac were actually shot in Varzy, 470km to the Northeast of it, as filmmaker Jean Eustache felt the Pessac of 1974 was unrecognizable to the one of his childhood. Similarly the Narbonne train station was actually filmed at the Carcassonne train station 57km to the West of it.
