Jules and Jim — official trailer

What is Jules and Jim about?

In the carefree days before World War I, introverted Austrian author Jules strikes up a friendship with the exuberant Frenchman Jim and both men fall for the impulsive and beautiful Catherine.

Jules and Jim is a 1962 French New Wave romantic drama film directed, produced and co-written by François Truffaut. Set before, during, and after World War I, it follows a love triangle involving French bohemian Jim, his shy Austrian friend Jules, and Jules' girlfriend and later wife Catherine. Hailed as a definitive example of French New Wave cinema, the film is still regarded as a classic. It won the 1962 Étoile de Cristal, with Moreau winning that year's prize for best actress.
