Much like The Third Man, Jules and Jim is simply weird. Sorry, not enough to make it a classic. I'm sort of getting tired of people telling me what "great" is only to find that it's simply French. Or...worse, Austrian.
I don't think weird is descriptive enough a word. I wouldn't say great, but I would say it was provocative enough to cause me to examine the origin of my own philosophies and nature and perspective.
@@laughingandpointing I think what makes the film great is that it is personal for Truffaut, poetic, made on the fly with a small budget and not doing too many takes, using dubbing, and the fact that the film made the Novel popular rather than a popular novel being made into a film. I can see why some people wouldn’t like it because the story is unconventional. There are a lot of scenes which just show our characters living their lives, it’s biographical, rather than plot driven. But yes it is undeniably a beautiful piece of work.
Wow, those subtitles are balls.
I think that there must be a second line sometimes, that's cut off.
best love story of all times
Truffaut directed it, but Georges Delerue made it....
O, That’s what they call liberty
you go where i go
Adults. The Europeans have it.
America is the number one superpower because it doesn't celebrate decadent love triangles, no matter how artfully portrayed.
@@turquoise770 Fascist
@@turquoise770 The movie doesn't really celebrate. You would know if you watched it.
@@Kaiyanwang82 portraying it at all is sick
@@turquoise770 nah, there is a thing called context. As OP implied, adults understand it.
El mejor plano secuencia de la pelicula
I hated this movie. And I liked Truffauts first film The 400 Blows.
