About La Nuit Américaine

*** There is a certain kind of dark romance here ***

La Nuit Américaine, aka day-for night shot;
A cinematographic technique for using shots filmed during the day to appear as moonlit night shots on the screen, by using different lenses, filters, special lighting and underexposure; very common during the 50s and in the 60s, can easily be done with digital camera's, but rarely used in present-day films.
Example: Alluded to in Francois Truffaut's film about film-making, La Nuit Americaine - Day for Night (1973).
