Short description
From the mean streets of the Belleville district of Paris to the dazzling limelight of New York's most famous concert halls, Edith Piaf's life was a constant battle to sing and survive, to live and love. Raised in her grandmother's brothel, Piaf was discovered in 1935 by nightclub owner Louis Leplee, who persuaded her to sing despite her extreme nervousness. Piaf became one of France's immortal icons, her voice one of the indelible signatures of the 20th century.
What's left behind the scenes
- All of Edith Piaf's vocal performances in the film were sung by the singer Gil Egro.
- The film is also known under another distribution title – “La Vie en rose”.
- The international English title is “The Passionate Life of Edith Piaf”.
- In a number of countries – the Czech Republic, Israel, Poland, and Finland – they preferred to put Édith Piaf's name in the film's title. And in Hungary, the film was released under the title “Piaf”.
- The original title translation is "Baby".
- Marguerite Monnot, the singer’s friend and composer, could not attend her last concert at the Olympia – as she had died two years earlier, in 1961.
