The onscreen fun of Jules et Jim continued between shots.
Beverly Hills, 1973
Truffaut was a fan:
"I think Renoir is the only filmmaker who's practically infallible, who has never made a mistake on film."
"The film of tomorrow won’t be made by functionaries of cinema but by artists for whom the shoot will constitute a formidable and exalted adventure.... The film of tomorrow will be an act of love."
