Say a prayer for me tonight I'll need every prayer that you can spare To get me by Say a prayer and while you're praying Keep on saying She's much too young to die On to your Waterloo, whispers my heart Pray I'll be Wellington, not Bonaparte Oh, say a prayer for me this evening Bow your head and please Stay on your knees tonight
Courtisans were not in brothels. They were meant to be the companions and lovers of powerful men at court. When they were smart they could go very far in life. They were more free than regular wives.
But it has a lovely ending. This is life among the well to do in Paris (as well as other cities) at the time. She wants Gaston, but not as a courtesan. She gives in because "I'd rather be miserable with you than miserable without you." Gaston soon realizes he doesn't want her that way. He asks for Gigi's hand in marriage. That's what she truly wanted in the first place. True love conquers.
interesting fact: initially this song was Eliza Doolittle's aria before the ball. but they decided to cut her out of "My Fair Lady" because the musical was too big
they had to sedate the cat in order to get through the song.... if she had a dog the drugs would not have been necessary! i wonder iif now tha aspca would have allowed any animal to be drugged just to use as a prop??
Dubbed by Marnie Nixon. Caron thought her own voice was good enough but you can compare because her original recording is on line. Nixon had a wonderful voice and dubbed just about everything at the time.
+brian skinner She was dubbed by Betty Wand, not Nixon. Not quite as popular with the studios as Nixon, but probably the second most popular singer for dubbing in those days.
I always love this movie.I saw it in 1958 when I was 15 years old.
I have watched Gigi 4 times in the past 4 years. I hardly ever watch a film more than once
Me toó!
Me toó
Brings back memories of my childhood whole family went to see it. Love this film ❤
This is the most beautiful dress of any movie - just amazing.
Say a prayer for me tonight
I'll need every prayer that you can spare
To get me by
Say a prayer and while you're praying
Keep on saying
She's much too young to die
On to your Waterloo, whispers my heart
Pray I'll be Wellington, not Bonaparte
Oh, say a prayer for me this evening
Bow your head and please
Stay on your knees tonight
This film brings back childhood memories ❤️🖤
A very sweet romantic film 😍
I love the music when she comes out all dressed up and her grandmother hugs her. So beautiful. Touches the heart
Was always my favorite song from the movie, especially the ending
J'adore cette chanson. C'est un de mes films préférés.
VampiresKiss15 moi aussi
Wonderful..touching and elegant.
It is a lovely film the sadness is it is about a young women being trained to be a courtesan.
I thought this was just to be a lady of breeding!??? Not a brothel

Maybe , but she winds up getting married.

It's highly improbable to see a picture of the Battle of Waterloo hanging on the wall of a french girl's bedroom.
Carlos Mescalera It depends. All is possible...in a romantic movie.
Maybe Gigi was a history buff!

@@nathangraham1611 great singing
Betty Wand is the actual singer here.
Does anyone else wish she sang this to her grandmother and not her cat?
Where the mòvie gigi with cary grant and ingrid bergman
Now if only we women can find men now....with it still attached
That cat is drugged AF
right?
