The Rules of the Game (1939) follows André Jurieu, a celebrated French aviator, who becomes infatuated with Christine de la Chesnaye, the wife of the affluent Marquis Robert de la Chesnaye. Robert, however, has his own extramarital relationship and invites his mistress, along with André and his companion Octave, to a weekend gathering at his country estate. The servants at the estate are also entangled in their own romantic intrigues: a poacher, hired as a servant, sets his sights on the gamekeeper's wife, while the gamekeeper recognizes him as the one who has been stealing his rabbits. Among the upper echelons, infidelity is not just tolerated but anticipated; the true breach of etiquette occurs when one fails to maintain the facade of fidelity in public.
