So sorry if this has been mentioned but has it? She was the femme in the love triangle; why has there not been discussions about the true characters behind the inspiration for this film?

"I was the one who jumped into the Seine"... I remember reading something about this.

I'm sorry, you've lost me. Was that an apparent quote from the late Beatrice Wood?
My post was simply asking those who have seen this movie or are familiar with the actual people who inspired the idea for this movie, as to why there weren't any discussions or threads about Beatto (Beatrice Wood), as she was the woman in the love triangle, between Duchamp & Roche'. This movie was based on Roche's book, of the same title. Although, some say Jules et Jim, was the story of Roche's OTHER biographic love triangle between Roche', Helen Grund, and Franz Hessel. Either way, Beatto Wood, was a key figure in Roche's life, and not mentioned in discussions about a movie for which, she was likely a key figure in the story, for which the movie was based.

That is an apparent quote from Beatrice Wood.
As far as I know, the only person who was alive when the film was actually made, who characters were based off of, were her.
The author died just before, I think, and I can't remember the gentlemen who Jules was based on, but I think I heard that he also died.
And perhaps I'm wrong, but I remember reading about a woman who admitted that she was the one that the film and book were based on, as she was the one "...who jumped into the Seine..."
Sorry about all the speculation, I just re-watched this the other week and wanted to see what people were talking about on here.

Thank you. I am not sure Beatrice or Roche ever confirmed Whether the story was based on the love triangle between Duchamp & Roche & Beatrice. Beatrice died in 1998, shortly after her 105th birthday.
She was literally an iconic woman, in my view. And her great nephew, was a dear friend, who sadly passed away, several years ago.

Helen Grund Hessel was alive and went to the preview.
