A sweeping tale of ill-fated romance and cross- channel relationships, Anne & Muriel is the second Truffaut adaptation of a Pierre Roche novel (after Jules & Jim).
Jean-Pierre Le´aud plays Claude, a young Parisian who meets two English girls – Anne, a sculptress, and Muriel, a schoolteacher – on a turn-of-the-century trip to Wales. This meeting will spark a me´nage-a`-trois spanning over 20 years, during which time alliances will be formed, broken, rearranged and reassembled in a tumultuous yet humorous portrait of human interconnectivity.
Restored and re-edited, the version presented here features an additional 20 minutes of footage that Truffaut added shortly before his death in 1984.
