[9abcdefgz]

What a surprise! Juliet Greco - best musician of France.

David Niven-  what en Englishman!

I could watch them hours and days.

[thunderinthevalley]

[centerstage707]

what movie is this... its looks soo good!! and i love Juliette Greco!!

[LushBudget]

@centerstage707 The movie is the exquisite BONJOUR TRISTESSE from 1958. Some scenes are in b/w, but most in beautiful color. It is available on DVD starring Jean Seberg, David Niven and Deborah Kerr. This scene with Juliette Greco singing the title song, is amongst my favorites in any film. The original book was very famous also.

Одна из моих самых любимых книг... Но иногда на рассвете, когда я ещё лежу в постели, а на улицах Парижа слышен только шум машин, моя память вдруг подводит меня: передо мной встаёт лето и всё связанные с ним воспоминания . ..., ... тихо-тихо и долго- долго я повторяю в темноте это имя. И тогда что-то захлёстывает меня, и, закрыв глаза, я окликаю это что-то по имени: " Здравствуй,...!"

[ArtsAlign]

Jean played this role so well, I imagine she was actually going through similar emotions at the time. Such a loss, so much potential!

[mokacode]

I would rather dance with juliette than jean...

[meAYCUL]

i love this song :X

[patoman881]

According to a French documentary I saw she made that hair style famous. She had played Joan of Arc the year before:-)

[couscous4]

Jean Seberg is a beautyyy !

[martinbeco]

She sings like an angel!

Good Morning Sadness - how many people say that when they wake up....so many sad people in the world..... and they love this sadness and we cant brake the wall they hide behind...such waste of life and time.... they smile fake smiles and feel so sorry for themselves while life passing them by....sadness is needed when balanced with other feelings, when it is always present, it is self prophecy....and so destructive.

[pseudonym1964]

Jean Seberg! How gorgeous...

[Buffik2000]

Отличный фильм!

[Nanusko]

Sí, fantástico

Having shared Mr. Crowther's scathing opinion, I will offer my own comment: I own the DVD, but it is not one that I *love*. I embrace it for its evocation of time and place and for the actors involved. The novel, apparently, was quite a sensation in France. I'd regard it as mandatory viewing for students of French culture, even though it was an American film made in English. Jean Seaberg, of course, was an American export to France and important in the New Wave period.

[EdClaude1]

This novel/film has a Wiki entry that references the NYT film review by their long-time critic, Bosley Crowther. It is one of the most savage reviews I have ever read..."Almost everything about this picture, which opened at the Capitol yesterday, manifests bad taste, poor judgment and plain deficiency of skill."

For those who have not seen it, it should be noted that the bulk of the picture is quite different from this clip, which is part of a "frame" within which the main story is told.

[EdClaude1]

A few years ago, I dragged a bike around France. My *best* day was a ride along the corniche (coast road) between Saint-Raphaël and Cannes (recommended by Lonely Planet). This is the exact setting of this story, one of the houses in the tiny strip between the road and the sea. October, mild, cloudless blue sky, *no* cars. Incredible.

[mutualmitten]

That sounds incredibly romantic. I would love to go alone on such a trip.

[caromoon49]

where i can see the video in mexico i can´t get it

[EverElizabeth]

a wonderful share MinkEyeLashes :))

[harrietcraig]

This is one of my all time favorite scenes in a movie. It says everything, and the wonderful Juliette Greco sings to set the mood. Great storytelling, the idle rich so beautiful yet so tragic.

[zaza90100]

films stupendo, interpretato da grandi attori..rivederlo, affiorano alla mente tanti bei ricordi..grazie francesco.-

[elvisobsessor]

this movie is "brilliant," as Elsa would say.

[bumperu]

Those eyes go right through you.

[whiterose465]

OMG! Someone shoudl post the movie! Please!

[Mazurka1001]

why zey speek zeenglish? '_

[emotimebomb]

i feel the book was better than the movie because the movie missed some key ideas that were in the book. they movie was still good thought!

[mcgiver02]

Truffaut was right : you CAN'T take your eyes off Jean Seberg.

[tismurdis]

She just has this spark,this energy and those eyes!

[547212436]

Is this song related to the classic music piece Tristesse study of Chopin?

[frodo322]

What a brat! Nothing can satisfy her, not the races, the clubs, the expensive clothes, she must be very unhappy.Good song

[choppedlogic]

Nothing can satisfy her...she takes after her dad very well then!

[porongopongo]

Es cierto que ella es la verdadera mamá de Joselito y que lo tuvo con Sartre porque Simone de Beauvoir era medio torta y que después se los dió para que lo criaran unas monjas francesas medio reventaditas?

[BSkamanki]

beautiful.  great movie. lovely song.

[jougi]

Bonjour, tristesse. Je le vis et je découvre avec grand plaisir Juliette Gréco.

C'est bien.

[ANTICHITASCIPPA]

Wonderful, thank you!

[patriciaoday]

I love the way this film transitions from black and white to color.

[famedmlp]

Juliette Greco 'la reine de l'existentialisme depuis St-Germain des Pres' m'a toujours fascinee. Les textes des Actors desintoxiquent le dilemne aussi profond que la voix de Juliette Greco la Muse qui inspire. Merci beaucoup!

[tuanxua]

well acted Deborah Kerr (her eyes) and touching song

[siriuslydranged]

I wish this version of the song were on cd.

[FranzKafkalove]
