Description: JULES AND JIM - SPECIAL EDITION starring JEANNE MOREAU THE CRITERION COLLECTION, a continuing series of important classic and contemporary films BLACK & WHITE Running tine approximately 105 minutes LANGUAGE: French SUBTITLES: English Hailed as one of the finest films ever made, legendary director Francois Truffaut's early masterpiece JULES AND JIM charts the relationship between two friends and the object of their mutual obsession over the course of twenty-five years. Jeanne Moreau stars as Catherine, the alluring and willful young woman whose enigmatic smile and passionate nature lure Jules (Oskar Werner) and Jim (Henri Serre) into one of cinema's most captivating romantic triangles. An exuberant and poignant meditation on freedom, loyalty, and the fortitude of love, JULES AND JIM was a worldwide smash upon its release in 1962 and remains as audacious and entrancing today. In pre-WWI Paris, two friends, introverted Austrian author Jules and French Bohemian Jim, fall in love with the same woman, Catherine. But Catherine loves and marries Jules. When they meet again in Germany after the war, Catherine starts to love Jim. This is the story of three people in love, a love that doesn't affect their friendship, and about how their relationship evolves with the years.
