Marc, la quarantaine, marié, père de famille, vit à Aix-en-Provence, près de la Méditerranée. Agent immobilier dans l'agence de son beau-père, il mène une vie tranquille. Alors qu'il fait visiter une maison à vendre, il croise une femme qui veut acheter cette maison pour le compte d’un marchand de bien et dont le visage lui semble familier. Le soir, il pense qu'il s'agit de Cathy, son amour d'enfance, quittée à douze ans lorsque sa famille dut fuir Oran, dans les années 1960, en pleine guerre d'Algérie. Troublé par cette rencontre il se remémore son amour d’enfance et retombe follement amoureux d’elle, oubliant sa femme et sa fille. Il la revoit et a une relation sexuelle avec mais elle le quitte au matin sans lui donner ses coordonnées en lui disant simplement qu’ils se reverront le jour de la signature du compromis de vente chez le notaire. Ils se revoient ce jour là mais après elle disparait de nouveau bien que lui ayant promis de le revoir à son hotel. Marc est troublé et se rend compte qu’il y a des choses étranges car sa mère et sa soeur lui apprennent que Cathy est morte avec son père dans un attentat peu aprés son propre départ précipité vers la France avec ses parents. Il mène son enquête partagé ente espoir et doute car il s’est de nouveau follement épris de celle qu’il croit être Cathy. Au fil de ses découvertes il découvre que « Cathy » est mêlée plus ou moins malgré elle a une opération immobilière frauduleuse montée par un des collègues de Marc et qu’en fait la dite Cathy est en réalité sa meilleure amie Marie-Jeanne (amoureuse de Marc lorsqu’ils étaient tous ensemble) que Marc avait cotoyé mais ignoré car à l’époque il n’avait d’yeux que pour Cathy. Cathy qui est bien morte en Algérie comme sa mère et sa soeur le savaient mais ne lui en avaient rien dit à l’époque car sachant son amour pour Cathy et son désespoir d’avoir du quitter l’Algérie et son amour d’enfance. Quelques mois plus tard alors que Marc est séparé de sa femme et vit seul il revoit Marie-Jeanne (la fausse Cathy) qui lui avoue avoir toujours été amoureuse de lui et a souffert en silence dans l’ombre, elle n’a jamais dit être Cathy mais éprouvant encore de l’amour pour lui elle n’a pas eu le courage de le détromper. Ils se revoient quelque temps plus tard et Marc lui dit qu’il va revenir sur les lieux de son enfance mais elle avoue ne pas en avoir le courage. Le film se termine à Oran où on voit Marc en pleurs qui revient sur la terrasse où il a passé de tendres moments avec Cathy. On ne sait pas comment se poursuivrait la relation entre Marie-Jeanne et Marc mais ils semblent néanmoins très proches lors de leur dernière entrevue avant le depart de Marc pour l'Algérie donc on peut supposer une suite positive a leur relation.

The American Tom Ripley (Delon) has been sent to Italy to persuade his wealthy friend, Philippe Greenleaf (Maurice Ronet), to return to the United States and take over his father's business. Philippe intends to do no such thing and the impoverished Tom enjoys living a life of luxury, so the two men essentially spend money all day and carouse all night. Tom is fixated on Philippe and his girlfriend Marge (Marie Laforêt) and covets the other man's life. Philippe eventually grows bored with his friend's fawning and becomes cruel and abusive to him. The final straw is when, during a yachting trip, Philippe strands Tom in the dinghy and leaves him to lie in the sun for hours.

Paris, January 1942. France is occupied by the Nazis. Robert Klein, apparently apolitical, is a well-to-do art dealer, Roman Catholic and Alsatian by birth, who takes advantage of French Jews who need to sell artworks to raise cash to leave the country. One day, the local Jewish newspaper, addressed to him, is delivered to his home. He learns that another Robert Klein who has been living in Paris, a Jew sought by the police, has had his mail forwarded to him in an apparent attempt to destroy his social reputation and make him a target of official anti-Semitism. He reports this to the police who remain suspicious that he may be reporting this scheme to disguise his own true identity. His own investigations lead him in contradictory directions, to Klein who lives in a slum while having an affair with his concierge and to Klein who visits a palatial country estate where he has seduced an apparently Jewish married woman. When the art dealer cannot locate the other Klein, authorities require him to offer proof of his French heritage. While waiting for the documentation to arrive, he struggles to track down his namesake and learn his motivation. Before he can resolve the situation by either means, he is caught up in the July 1942 roundup of Parisian Jews. He is reunited with Jews who once were his clients as they board boxcars for Germany.

Ripley accepts the proposal, even though he did not attend Princeton and has never met Dickie.
