At the film's end, when the screenwriter threatens to violate the rules of worldliness by falling in love, Jean-Paul saves him from the folly of earnestness by bedding the lady himself.

Then Author Simone de Beauvoir, 70, and Philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre, 73, sit and sip aperitifs at an outdoor cafe and dine in their favorite restaurants in the Piazza Navona. The Parisian couple's mutual devotion during 49 years of intimacy is nearly matched by their attachment to Rome-where they have spent part of every summer for the past 25 years.
