Pink Panther is one of the great sophisticated comedies of all time. This clip is awesome with the marvelous Fran Jeffries singing. I bought the soundtrack hoping to listen to it endlessly....but to my disappointment the record company execs substituted an instrumental version.
@seanamico Well, it's played live in the movie, isn't it? So I'm afraid there is no version you could purchase; if there is a soundtrack, surely they put the studio version onto it (which is not nearly as good imho)...
@JonValkenberg, They usually sell sound tracks from movies and it would be the same as the movie but I never found it. I have her singing it but not like the movie and its a different version and not quite as good as this.
@seanamico I've had some experiences with buying soundtracks. It happens quite often, that the version on the soundtrack is different from the version in the movie (e.g. O Brother where art thou). In this case I'm pretty sure on a possibly available soundtrack there would be a different version, because in the movie it seems to be a life performance - which I find artistically perfect, but technically its not adequate for an only-audio publication.
@impCaesarAvg : Hi, yes you are right of course. I did not mean to disparage her (or Americans in general). Far from it. Actually her Italian is not that bad. I just keep on wondering why noone tells a singer this little problem with the -e endings. "me a te" sounds like "may a tay" with angloamerican accent. Everything else sounds good and could be easily improved. Well, German accent is a lot worse :-) Italian's English sounds funny indeed - like Chico Marx :-)
@Starcrow999 And a very rare ass it happens to be too, excellent form!
I believe this was filmed at the Palace Hotel, Gstaad. Or more accurately The Gstaad Palace had the great fortune to contain the very rare and shapely ass of Fran Jeffries!
I have been looking for this song forever! I had it in my head since childhood and I could never remember what it was called or who sang it, thank you so much.
I love Fran! Saw the movie again on TCM and I'm so happy for finding it on YouTube! she's hot and the music/song if one of my all time favs! Where is Fran today?
Women (actually "girls" ) of today could stand to take a lesson out of Fran's book on how to look, act, and dress "sexy' without being slutty! Fran is one classy and talented lady!
Absolutely adorable. and retro smoking hot, plain magic. wouldn't be the same without Sellers though. One of those parties you wish you haven't missed!
******The never ending Beauty of this song, even , after so many years, is incredible and also the film himself, i can watch in 1.000.000 times again.
This is one of those films that I've only truly developed an emotional connection due to one or two particular scenes. Fran Jeffries happens to have one of the more idyllic, curvaceous bods I've seen perform live music. Madonna's is equally formidable.
But when you watch the REST of "The Pink Panther," it's not AS hilarious as the rest of the Peter Sellers/Herbert Lom pairings. For this scene alone, I bought the DVD.
@bittersweetsunrise : "The Pink Panther" (the original film) was more in the vein of a sophisticated, elegant romp. The sequels were much broader and more slapstick.
No sé como se llama esta mujer tan bella y agraciada. Pero con esa canción esta recreando una de las mejores películas que protagonizara Peter Sellers: "Una fiesta inolvidable"
I remember this as one of the best thiings in the movie. Wow, haven't seen in in 30 years! She is great and so is the whole routine. I was just watching Michael Buble's version and it doesn't touch it.
When I was 17,I saw the pink panther movie and fell hoplessly in love with Fran when she sang this song, 45years have now passed and I still adore her,I am so pleased the song is now on U Tube,as I watch it when I need cheering up Love you Fran.xx
@memoryman1984 : She had a somewhat meatier role in "Sex and the Single Girl," in which she played Tony Curtis' girlfriend (who just happens to be -- surprise! -- a professional singer).
@memoryman1984 She was a fairly successful Nightclub singer, She was married to singer Dick Haymes for a while and posed nude in Playboy too! I saw her perform in the late 1980's and was GREAT and SEXY! THEN...
have a look at the move "Sex and the single Girl" Staring Tony Curtis and Natalie Wood. And Fran as the friend with benefits of Tony's character :) She's even singing the title-song in the movie :D
I wonder why she's looking straight at the camera. It's nice though it's like she's liking right at you. enchanting. and 0:08 is pretty awesome too
