Review of Jules and Jim (1962) by Codyz — 25 Jul 2023
Movie was fun and fresh at the beginning, then grew tiresome and illogical, as it went on, much like the main characters.
Oskar Werner was the best thing in this movie, his understated performance balanced the increasingly wacky drama. He was the most normal of the 3.
The low budget New Wave, hand held rambling camera, offbeat style was interesting at first, but like Moreau's unstable character, grows tiresome and annoying.
Why the two guys stuck around for so long, enduring her mood swings, selfish uncommitments, cheating, etc, is maybe the point of the movie. I would've dumped her after a year of her self destructive nonsense.
