PRODUCT INFORMATION
The summer of 1976 in the quaint town of Thiers. Life is a buzz at the local school. Confident Patrick is besotted with his young teacher, Mme. Petit. His friend and new transfer Julien struggles, through no fault of his own, to keep up. Meanwhile, Bruno teaches his peers other important life lessons - like how to chat up girls. Together, this interwoven series of vignettes capture the children as they navigate the joys and heartbreak of growing up. With charming and honest performances from its young cast - including his own daughter Laura - François Truffaut (The 400 Blows) brilliantly captures the true spirit of adolescence with humour, poignancy and a touch of magic. A critical and commercial success around the world, Pocket Money is presented here on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK.

Shipping
No, we only ship inside the US
Most orders for in-stock items take less than 24 hours to ship (may take longer if you place an order over the weekend). Pre-orders are shipped as soon as the product arrives. International pre-orders may not come in before the street date. This is especially true with Australian pre-orders.
We only use USPS for all shipments. If there is an issue after your order ships you will need to contact your local post office.
Product
All items that come with a slipcover will say so in the product page.
Pre-orders will not say WITH SLIPCOVER until the product comes in.
Slipcovers are not guaranteed to be in mint condition.
If you can order it, it's either in stock or a pre-order. If an item is out of stock you will not be able to add it to your cart. It's rare but our inventory may not be correct. So in some cases an item may have to be shipped separately.
