Talk:Jules and Jim

Final paragraph

The final paragraph in the article states: "Quentin Tarantino references this work in his film Pulp Fiction. It is also 'quoted' by Jean-Pierre Jeunet in his film Amélie, by Cameron Crowe in his film Vanilla Sky and in the music of the bands Lloyd Cole and the Commotions and The Divine Comedy." I'm going to remove the Cole reference for the time-being. My own opinion is that there is a good chance that Cole is referencing Jules et Jim in "Speedboat" (i.e. "Julie said to Jim why don't we jump in"), but there is no verifiable content, but I could only find one external reference suggesting that that might be true: [1].

• Oppose. Even when restricted to English language pages, Google returns 162,000 hits for "Jules et Jim" and 144,000 for "Jules and Jim". Most people refer to this movie as "Jules et Jim" in English. - Nunh-huh 23:11, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
  • That Google test is much closer to a dead heat than a decisive result, but more importantly, the video and DVD packaging of most English releases of the films are in English. Surely the title it is being released as is a more relevant determinant? Girolamo Savonarola 00:23, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
    • It's a "weak" oppose. The Googling comports with my experience, which is that most people use "Jules et Jim", and the more they know about film, the more likely they are to use that title rather than "Jules and Jim". - Nunh-huh 01:16, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
• Support on the basis that "À bout de souffle" is located at Breathless --Lox (t,c) 20:48, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
• Support for consistency and because of WP:NC(UE). Nightstallion 09:00, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Moved for the above reason; as much as I dislike WP:NC(UE), I still have to abide by it. Nightstallion 09:00, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Misquoting Quintin Tarantino is sacralidge. "Don't *fucking* Jimmy me, Jules" is the line. But wikipedia's censorship wont allow it. How sad.

Style

One of the products of the French New Wave (Nouvelle Vague), Truffaut incorporated newsreel footage, photographic stills, freeze frames, panning shots, wipes, masking, dolly shots, and voiceover narration (by Michel Subor). Truffaut's cinematographer was Raoul Coutard, a frequent collaborator with Jean-Luc Godard, who employed the latest lightweight cameras to create an extremely fluid film style. For example, some of the postwar scenes were shot using cameras mounted on bicycles. The musical score is by Georges Delerue. One song, "Le Tourbillon" ("The Whirlwind") by Serge Rezvani, which sums up the turbulence of the lives of the three main characters, became a popular hit.
