French actor and actress were very popular in Japan about 40 years ago.
Catherine Deneuve & Alain Delon were always the first place by popularity votes of movie magazine.

She is stunning, but I have to admit that I had never heard of her or seen her before. Did she make only French films?

Incidentally yes. My first intention had been to give a clue about a movie she could have made in the US or even a so-called "international" one but I couldn't find a single one...


Hi all.

Mireille Darc did appear in an English language/international production from 1969 called either MONTE CARLO OR BUST! or THOSE DARING YOUNG MEN IN THEIR JAUNTY JALOPIES, directed by Ken Annakin (never saw this one, though).

And ... Angelillo ... you overlooked Darc as the LA BLONDE DE PEKING. smile

Bravo ! And I did see it and so that's a shame I did not remember it. But, to be honest, I hardly remember anything from that movie that tried to follow the pace of some previous "Magnificent Men"...

Found the movie on Youtube. She takes part to that race with two other mademoiselles :



Mireille shows up at 00h23mn43s when she causes an injury to another driver and then tries to fix the problem at 00h25mn23s. Of course, both french actors/characters speak english...

Let's say it would be great to have this Goodwin score on CD. I had bought the LP because I had mixed it up with THOSE MAGNIFICENT MEN IN THEIR FLYING MACHINES. The album is fair but the score sounds great.

Hélas non ! frown

Pretty confidential one I'd never heard of until you mentioned it but, fortunately, the DVD is available at the local library ! So thanks for the tip.

And more good news : the dialogue is by the brilliant Jean-Loup Dabadie.

I guess you know that movie because Loussier's score, am I wrong ?

Hi, Angellilo.

Came across the image of that EP cover at this site:

http://www7a.biglobe.ne.jp/~katers-murr/Favorite-France45-001.html

But I know little about it at all except that Loussier scored it and the B&W design recalls the
1966 pop art / Avengers craze which would have been unimaginable only a few years prior.

If you get a chance to see it, let us know what it's like... smile

[the reviwer at IMDB considers A BELLES DENTS as a Roger Vadim facsimile]

Ouch... Considering I dislike Vadim's movies very much, this doesn't sound very encouraging...
