Editorial Reviews
From the Label
The legendary director of this film, Billy Wilder, assigned composer extraordinaire Andre Previn [GIGI, MY FAIR LADY and ELMER GANTRY (an August 25th Rykodisc release)] to create a score for this non-musical version of the smash stage show. The 1964 Academy Award® for Best Score was given to Previn for his infectious and playful work, which propels this comedy about the romantic entanglement of a Parisian hooker (Shirley Maclaine) and a Parisian policeman (Jack Lemmon).First Time On CD!

Customer Reviews:

Great film soundtrack, don't miss it.......2002-07-03

Andre Previn is a renowned conductor in the classical field. He is also heavily engaged in film scoring, the most famous two are the score for "My fair lady" and "Jesus Christ Superstar". In the 60s', the music of this film was used frequently by Hong Kong film makers due to the lack of film music composer. The music of this CD is highly enjoyable, don't miss it! Just click and listen to the sample of the music clips provided here and you will see what a great soundtrack this is.
