If you loved Mississippi Mermaid, try Two English Girls

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by François Truffaut, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mississippi Mermaid, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Two English Girls is

Truffaut does his best to film a pre-WWI version of Jules et Jim. A young man becomes involved with two sisters, leading to complicated relationships and emotional fallout. It's the kind of movie where people dramatically run into the sea.
