There have been other films about Edith Piaf. There was PIAF: The Early Years (1974), directed by Guy Casaril, with Brigitte Ariel as Edith Piaf. Included is PIAF (1984), A TV film with Jane Lapotaire as Edith Piaf, also starring Jean Smart and Judith Ivey. A stunning concert film was PIAF: Her Story, Her Songs (2003). This film featured songstress Raquel Bitton actually singing all of the Piaf songs, and doing a great rendition; so much nicer that watching an actress lip-synch. There is a good documentary too, LES HOMMES DE PIAF (2003), narrated by Charles Aznavour. For those who were paying attention we heard Edith Piaf singing on the soundtrack of Spielberg’s SAVING PRIVATE RYAN (1998).
