The Young Girls of Rochefort

The French director Jacques Demy scored a worldwide hit in 1964 with The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, a bittersweet candy-colored romance in which all the dialogue was set to music. Equally enchanting is the musical that reunited Demy with the star and composer of Umbrellas, Catherine Deneuve and Michel Legrand. The film is The Young Girls of Rochefort, an effervescent concoction about traveling players and dreamy-headed demoiselles in a seaside town. Deneuve and her real-life sister, Françoise Dorléac (who died in a car accident not long after the movie was made), play twins who fantasize about life in Paris...

    A.1.

    I`ve seen this film 5 times in the past 30 years and it is A.1. It is French spoken and Gene Kelly speaking and singing in French is a delight to the ears. One to watch.

    Francoise Dorleac

    Fantastic, beautiful, amazing. A real screen gem. Not usually fond of musicals but this is simple outstanding. Francoise Dorleac is stunning as always, shame she was lost to the world in such a tragic way and so young.

    • 16 May 2008

    Here's something you may not know about Harrison Ford: in 1968 he was a struggling young actor (youngish - he was 26) when the French director Jacques Demy picked him to star in his first Hollywood movie, Model Shop. Demy was on a roll: his delightful musicals The Umbrellas of Cherbourg and The Young Girls of Rochefort were among the most popular films to emerge from the French new wave, not just in Europe, but in North America too. Ford had done a couple of bit roles in B movies and on TV,... Read more
