Would Godard's Masculine-Feminine (a personal favorite) fit with what's
being asked for? It's supposedly based on two short stories by De
Maupassant (sp?), one called "Paul's Mistress" and the other called "The
Signal." I haven't read any of these, so I'm not exactly sure how they were
combined into the film. In addition, Godard doesn't seem the type to do
straightforward adaptation, so I have no idea how much MF differs from its
source material.

Hope this helps,
Andrew
