- Summary:
- François Truffaut directed Jules et Jim in 1961. The film is born from the enthusiastic discovery of an autobiographical novel written by Henri-Pierre Roché and love at first sight for the actress Jeanne Moreau, without whom the film would never have been made. Their great complicity enabled Jeanne and François to transform the story into a lover's triangle. Through the portrayal of a free woman who lives to the rhythm of her desires and who is filmed as an engine of cultural modernity, François Truffaut anticipates the 1960s. Jules is German, Jim is French: their cinematic friendship is contemporary with the rekindling of French-German political alliances. François Truffaut, the man who loved women, dreamed up the invention of a "pure love triangle"
