Song by Edith Piaf and Théo Sarapo.

France (and btw Parisian) romance at its best.

The animated short illustrates the lyrics which title can be translated as "What love is all about ?"

I've sensed the flavor of France !

This song is very famous and sung by Edith Piaf and Théo Sarapo and titled "A Quoi ça sert l'amour ?" (Which could be translated as "What love is all about ?").

Btw, very very nice sift. My favorite by far. The lyrics are really emphasyzed by the great animation.

puke! this is the exact opposite of my edith piaf post.

Yes, it was the last film I watched before leaving Canada. It was very touching, I had always enjoyed Edith Piaf's songs got exposed to her via my mum the first time I watched Saving Private Ryan, she can be heard singing in the last scene before the soliders face off against the advancing germans. My mum said it was Edith Piaf. Later on I came across her songs, some of them are on VS.

The movie was amazing, I was afraid that the actress wouldn't be able to capture her intensity but she pulled it off, very touching... I think the most touching scene for me personally was when her lover died, she sees him come to her...she runs out to find his gift... her servants stand eerily silent... slowly it dawns on you that he is dead and she is the last person to understand that.

The ending was beautiful, it managed to show her as being a talented woman with many flaws as well, in effect it humanized her.

This film along with the Black Book were the best cinema experiences I had before coming back to Kuwait where movies are butchered for censorship purposes.
