Synopsis:
Jean is a documentary filmmaker. Even though he has a loving wife of eleven-years, something is missing. Spending time with the youthful redhead Catherine, they idle away their time on the beach, drive around Paris and stay in hotel rooms. However, their relationship is not as wonderful as it seems. Jean becomes verbally abusive, 'I'm ruining my life by being with you'.

Special Features:
• A 19-minute 2003 video interview with star Marlène Jobert about the film, conducted by Serge Toubiana (former editor-in-chief of Cahiers du cinéma and director of the Cinémathèque Française).

• La Camargue (1966) - A short 6-minute essay-documentary by Maurice Pialat on the region in which much of the action of Nous ne vieillirons pas ensemble unfolds.

• A 5-minute excerpt from the 1972 "Pour le cinéma: Spécial Cannes", featuring interviews with Jean Yanne and Maurice Pialat, both at Cannes, and two scenes deleted from the final film.

• An 8-minute excerpt from the 1972 program "Vive le cinéma", featuring François Truffaut in conversation about both Nous ne vieillirons pas ensemble and Pialat's earlier L'Enfance-nue, and including two unedited printed takes from the main feature.

• A 12-minute excerpt from another 1972 installment of "Vive le cinéma", featuring Maurice Pialat in conversation about the film.

• Original trailer for the film, and trailers for the six other Maurice Pialat features available from The Masters of Cinema Series.
