In the cataclysmic aftermath of World War II, Hollywoods standard mold of big studio movie-making was broken: Rossellinis and DeSicas Italian Neo-Realism and Truffaut and Godards French New Wave created out of the stark conditions of the post-war era, a filmmaking aesthetic that moved beyond enclosed film studio walls to tell authentic and imaginative tales about the lives of everyday folks ranging from workers to intellectuals and artists. Jules and Jim is an utterly magical film that captures the onset of the 20th century mercurial sexual revolution; the scintilating Jeanne Moreau centers the ongoing mnage a trios that follows the wildly shifting amour between two men and a woman - set at the turn-of-the-century (20th) their tale picks up again after World War I. Truffaut found their story in a used book store in Paris ; it was a memoir that chronicled the shifting amours between the three portrayed by Jules (Oskar Werner), Jim (Henri Sere) and Catherine (Jeanne Moreau). - Vic Skolnick
