Plaisir d'amour: essai d'étude visuelle sur une femme déchue

An exquisite corpse short musical essay reworking three short films from French surrealist filmmaker Germaine Dulac:
Disque 957 (Germaine Dulac, 1928)
Arabesque (1929)
Celles qui s'en font - Germaine Dulac (1930)
"Rushing" Music Arrangement of Can't Help Falling in Love by Barbara Smith
for Piano, Synth and Smith-Corona Electric Typewriter
Featuring the slammin' synth sounds of Kontent
Can't Help Falling in Love is originally based on the French love song Plaisir d'amour from the 1700s:
Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment,
chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie.
J'ai tout quitté pour l'ingrate Sylvie,
Elle me quitte et prend un autre amant.
Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment,
chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie.
"Tant que cette eau coulera doucement
vers ce ruisseau qui borde la prairie,
je t'aimerai", me répétait Sylvie,
l'eau coule encor, elle a changé pourtant.
Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment,
chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie.
The pleasure of love lasts only a moment,
The grief of love lasts a lifetime.
I gave up everything for ungrateful Sylvia,
She is leaving me for another lover.
The pleasure of love lasts only a moment,
The grief of love lasts a lifetime.
"As long as this water will run gently
Towards this brook which borders the meadow,
I will love you", Sylvia told me repeatedly.
The water still runs, but she has changed.
The pleasure of love lasts only a moment,
The grief of love lasts a lifetime.
