The Rules of the Game
 The Rules of the Game (original French title: La Règle du jeu) is a 1939 French film directed by Jean Renoir about upper-class French society just before the start of World War II. He originally adapted the story from Alfred de Musset's Les Caprices de Marianne a popular 19th-century comedy of manners: My first intention was to film a transposition of Caprices de Marianne to our time.
