Jules et Jim by François Truffaut

My favorite filmmaker of all time. With one of his most iconic movies. Jules et Jim. The story of two bohemian friends and the love they shared for the same woman. Catherine (played by the beautiful Jeanne Moreau)

The movie is iconic not only for its story, but certainly for its style, a classic example of Nouvelle Vague French Cinema.

This is one of my favorite scenes from the movie. While it does not address the central theme of the movie (friendship, love triangles, missed opportunities) it tells of the spirit of the age, where everything seemed possible. Where even being a “curious” could be an occupation.
