Jules and Jim

In 1912 Paris, the French bon-vivant Jim meets the insecure German Jules and they begin a great friendship. When they meet the fickle, independent French Catherine, they immediately fall in love with her. However Jules' naiveness and fragility attracts the amoral Catherine and she marries him. With the First World War, best friends Jules and Jim are separated, but after the war they reunite in Jules's cottage in Germany. Jim stays with Jules, Catherine, and their daughter Sabine, and Jules tells his friend that while he has lived with Catherine she has had affairs with several lovers. When Catherine falls in love with Jim, Jules asks him to stay with her at his house. Through the years, Jules and Jim live a triangle of love with Catherine that never affects their friendship and respect.
