Truffaut and Werner had worked successfully together before, on Jules & Jim. I didn't mean to suggest that they couldn't communicate, but rather that it may have felt different doing a film in another language. The dvd commentaries are interesting.
Werner seems off-kilter and weary, which sort of works for me as Montag. I've only seen him in two other films--Ship of Fools and slumming in Columbo; he seemed more natural in those.
