As befits the soundtrack of a music biopic, most of the heavy lifting here is done by the movie's subject: iconic French singer Edith Piaf. She was the Gallic Judy Garland, a natural performer who overcame one personal tragedy after another and was never more alive than on stage, forging an uncommon bond with both material and audience. Since actress Marion Cotillard lip-synchs in the film, the first 11 tracks on the CD are by Piaf herself, and give a good overview of her biggest hits (though we get the English version of the title track) and her feverish, ultra-dramatic style. But Piaf wasn't only a tragedienne of song: Her lighter side is represented by "Rien de Rien" and "Mon Manège à Moi," which she infuses with wonderful flair. Tracks 12-20 are made up of Christopher Gunning's richly symphonic original score (check out "La Mort de Leplée"). The last third of the album offers Piaf without Piaf, with contemporary singers Jil Aigrot and Maya Barsoni performing her songs (apparently because the originals' poor sound quality meant they would have stuck out in the movie). Watch out, however, for Mistinguett's hilarious "Il m'a vu nue," a slice of French music-hall history preserved in amber. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

La Vie en Rose (2008-10-26)
Too bad the title song is in English; other than that, what can I say: love Piaf, loved the movie also!
Nice to see Gunning getting some love (2008-08-29)
The legendary singer Edith Piaf, who died in 1963, remains a national icon of French musical culture to this day, whose razor-blade voice was unmistakable, and whose massive stage presence belied her diminutive stature. Director Olivier Dahan's biography of Piaf, La Môme (released internationally as "La Vie en Rose", after one of her most famous songs), stars Marion Cotillard in an extraordinary performance as the Little Sparrow, and features supporting turns from such respected Gallic actors as Sylvie Testud, Pascal Greggory, Emmanuelle Seigner and Gérard Depardieu. For the music, Dahan surprisingly turned to English composer Christopher Gunning, who hasn't written music for this high profile a film since Firelight a decade ago. As one might expect, Gunning's music is distinctly French in tone, replete with tinkling pianos, cooing choirs and almost clichéd accordions, but has a surprisingly light, almost-fairytale like waltz quality in the opening "L'Eveil". The main theme, "Mon Legionnaire", depicts the relationships between Piaf and the various men in her life, and is a quite solemn and stately piano solo, seemingly echoing the private tragedy that dogged Piaf's public life; it appears later in the score during "La Mort de Leplée" and "Mon Légionnaire/Arrestation". With the exception of the sweeping, tragedy-laden finale "Dernière Nuit" it's generally a fairly lightweight score, pleasant in tone, but seeming content to play the supporting role to Piaf and her voice. Still, it's gratifying to see Chris Gunning getting a modicum of international exposure. The songs of Piaf, of course, play a massively important part of the soundtrack album, and all in all eleven of her most famous performances are captured on the CD, including the legendary trio "Rien de Rien", "La Vie en Rose" and her signature piece, "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien", which I'm sure no-one with an ounce of French blood can hear without getting chills. The middle section of the CD is given over to selections from Gunning's score, while the final third is dedicated to modern re-interpretations of Piaf classics, including several by Parigote singer Jil Aigrot.
movie sound track (2008-06-09)
Very good reproduction of the original masters. I enjoy it over and over because I liked the movie and the music of that era. The actress deserved the Oscar I think. Todays musiic does seem like music to an old timer.
