They had created nothing.
Jim thought,
new laws are beautiful...
but it's more practical
to obey old ones.
We played with life and lost.
I don't believe it.
- You gave up your cottage?
- Yes.
We've rented an old mill
on the Seine.
We must see each other.
Drop in tomorrow.
Please tell me about Catherine.
For a long time,
I feared she'd commit suicide.
She had bought a gun.
She would say,
"So-and-so killed himself"...
like others say,
"So-and-so died of cholera."
She seemed to be in mourning.
She looked like she'd been ill.
She moved in slow motion
with a dead smile on her face.
Gilberte, this is my friend Jules.
Jim has told me so much about you.
I feel like I know you.
Does Catherine know
you've come to see me?
Yes. She's inviting you
for a ride in her car.
I'd like you
and maybe your wife to come.
- She won't accept, but I will.
- I've got to go now.
No, Jules! You can't wear a hat
like that, at least not in France.
Here. Take mine.
- Hello.
- Hi.
Come. It's over there.
She's in a good mood today.
Don't jar her.
Your place is beautiful.
Look at her car.
It's Jim.
Catherine smiled,
but she looked mysterious.
She took her white pajamas and
wrapped them in a neat parcel.
Jim wondered why
They went for a drive.
I'm hungry. Let's eat here.
Albert, what are you doing here?
Getting some fresh air.
Besides, I live here.
- Will you eat with us?
- Sure, if we eat now.
- You got a date?
- Perhaps.
Please give me my parcel.
Good night.
She's done it again.
I didn't expect it.
I thought she'd use
a new leading man.
- Albert is an old story.
- He was perfect for tonight.
Leave her the car.
She thinks that in a couple, at least
only one person needs to be faithful.
- The other...
- I must go home.
You saw that I'm not living alone.
- I'm going to marry Gilberte.
- You're wiser than I am.
You've realized that when it's over
with Catherine, it's all over.
Gilberte will make a good wife.
She's very beautiful.
Jim recognized Catherine's car.
First he saw nothing.
Then he saw the car
weaving on the empty square...
like a riderless horse,
like a ghost ship.
What a night.
I made a mistake.
That life was dead for me.
It was a desert, Jim.
I kept looking for you.
Then come right away.
Lie down next to me.
Kiss me.
There's something I must tell you.
Say it.
I found a passage
you had marked in a book.
"On a ship, a woman made love...
to a stranger in her mind."
It struck me as a confession.
That's how you explore the universe.
I feel that curiosity too.
Perhaps everyone does.
I overcome it for your sake,
but you don't.
In love, I agree with you...
a couple is not ideal.
Just look around you.
You wanted something better...
by refusing to submit
to hypocrisy.
But pioneers must be
humble and unselfish.
Let's face it.
We have failed in everything.
but I've created only pain.
I promised to marry Gilberte...
but I can't postpone
my promise endlessly.
It's counterfeit.
I've no longer any hope
of marrying you.
Catherine, I am going
to marry Gilberte.
We can still have children.
How touching.
What about me?
What about me?
What about the children I wanted?
- You didn't want any.
- I did.
They would have been beautiful.
You are going to die.
You disgust me, Jim.
I'm going to kill you.
You're a coward. You're scared.
Jim was glad to see Jules and to
see that Catherine left him cold.
She tried not to leave them alone
and suggested a ride.
Jim agreed.
But where to?
Catherine drove fast
and carelessly.
Something was in the air,
Just like the day they met Albert.
They stopped in a caf by a pond.
- Now they're burning books.
- It's unbelievable.
Catherine found
you were easy to get...
and hard to keep.
Your love vanished and returned...
with hers.
I never knew those ups and downs.
Mr. Jim, I've something to tell you.
Will you come with me?
Watch us, Jules.
as he had from the beginning...
her unfaithfulness
and that he might lose her...
since she was gone now.
Their bodies were found
in the river.
Jim's coffin was huge.
It dwarfed Catherine's.
They left nothing of themselves.
But Jules had his daughter.
Did Catherine merely
seek excitement? No.
But she had dazed Jules.
He was overcome with relief.
The friendship of Jules and Jim
had no equivalent in love.
They enjoyed little things together.
They accepted their differences
with tenderness.
Everyone called them
The ashes were placed in an urn.
Catherine wanted hers
to be cast to the wind...
but that was not permitted.
