Trivia:
Anne's last words in the film are, "If you send for a doctor, I will see him now." These were writer Emily Brontė's last words before she died, Truffaut who was an avid reader probably used her words in the film as an homage or to compare her to the character of Anne. more

"Two English Girls" is a lyrical, amusing slice of Truffaut's unique vision and style of filmmaking. Like all great artists, he can shift his tone from lushly romantic to deadpan comic, from poetic to amusingly prosaic without missing a beat, and all the while keeping his story all of one piece. If you love Truffaut's voice, you'll love this film - charming, personal, light-hearted, with a touch of melancholy. Beautifully filmed, ably acted, with Leaud playing his benign cad so well.
