Kill Bill!
Anyone notice Tarantino did an homage in Kill Bill Vol. 1 to Adele H.?
When Adele writes "Victor Hugo" in the dust on the mirror, and then wipes it off, it's almost exactly the same as when Hanzo writes "Bill" on the window, and The Bride wipes it off with her sleeve.
I love finding all the references! It makes me feel so priveleged!

And anyone else think Truffaut was in love with Adele?
He titled it Adele H., because he respected her story, not wanting to draw a crowd because of her father's name.
There are a lot of shots that just rest on her face.
She reminds me of the guy at the end of Stolen Kisses, who says the speech about being "permanent" in a "temporary" world.
I bet Adele was the "permanent" kind of woman that Truffaut was looking for in all his movies.
