JULES ET JIM is a remarkably frank exploration of the nature of love and friendship and features one of the most famous love triangles in the history of cinema. Set in the bohemian Paris of 1912 two aspiring writers form a close friendship. Jules (Oscar Werner) is a shy, philosophical Austrian, while Jim (Henri Serre) is a debonair Frenchman, confident and successful with women. When they both fall for the beautiful, capricious Catherine (Jeanne Moreau), it is Jules she chooses to marry. Interrupted by World War which finds Jules and Jim fighting on opposite sides, it is several years later that Jim decides to visit his two friends and their young daughter in the Rhine Valley. However their marriage is not what it seems, and Jim soon finds himself embroiled in a complex, turbulent ménage à trois. |
