Jules et Jim
Synopsis
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.
Cinematic DNA
I've always been interested in love stories, especially love stories that take place between three people. In fact, 'In the Mood for Love' was originally conceived as a film about three people. It was called 'A Story of Two,' and then it became 'In the Mood for Love.' It was almost a 'Jules and Jim' kind of story.
