Why watch this film?

If the New Wave French was one of the most important cinematic avant-gardes of the second half of the 20th century, 'Jules and Jim' is one of its gems, for some still more important than the most known work of its director, 'The 400 Blows'. With this movie, François Truffaut and his photographer Raoul Coutard proposed a highly fluid visual style, which included war archive images and innovative and very unconventional camera movements for its time. That same fluidity is transferred to its protagonists, in a love triangle that contrasts completely with classic cinema, in a story about friendship and love as daring as it is entertaining and reflective.
