Day For Night, as a film about the making of a film and the deceptions and pretentiousness involved while at the same time showing the extreme flaws of the producers, actors and crew, was fascinating

Saw Jules and Jim on the big screen for the first time tonight. Conclusions:
1. It’s absolutely a masterpiece
2. Detractors are correct that the first half far outshines the second half, which gets slightly boring and circular
3. It might be retitled ‘Two Guys and a Manic Pixie Dream Girl.’ Jeanne Moreau’s character is an obvious narcissist, though no one in the film ever uses the n-word

Think maybe I first paid attention to Jeanne Moreau in Louis Malle’s Viva Maria!
