Mireille

When I get an e-mail from FS-fan Edmond V., I know I'm in for a treat. This time he's send me a song by the lovely Mireille Darc, ex-madame Alain Delon, ex-model and actress in movies like Borsalino, Fantasia chez les ploucs and Il était un foi un flic. That last movie was directed by Georges Lautner, Darc often interpreted the charming silly French girl in his films - she appeared in ten of his movies. Serge Gainsbourg, ofcourse, was surely not indifferent to her charms (when Brigitte Bardot begged him not to release their Je t'aime-version, he offered to redo it with Darc), which is why he wrote Le drapeau noir and Helicoptère for her. He sang the first song himself later for a Martini-commercial.
