I’m 29 and grew up with a Diva poster in my room, not knowing what it was of course, then I found the film on my own and made the connection. I played this song for my parents earlier this summer, who saw it in college in the 80’s as they were falling in love (hence the poster in a child’s bedroom) and asked them if they could identify the song, just playing the music on Spotify. They both immediately said ‘Diva’ - Knowing after all those years; that’s when I knew it was something special.
I watched this so many years ago with my friend/husband/brother/father/uncle/Grandpa... He passed suddenly last September... We were high school sweethearts, met in band class ❤... I’m listening tonight with our granddaughter...❤
On my list as one of my 10 favorite films of all time. A dreamy, Zen-like movie, with startling scenes, plot, and music. Joy-full. mysterious, funny, and very Zen.
Agreed. I use it in my literary genres class. It's all about genres and form on one level, but also such a terrifically told and shot story, a true classic.
This has been called with good reason the most beautiful episode on film. I teach this movie in my literary genres course at an HBCU. It is one of my favorite films, ever.
Roger, I'm late to your party, but I'm an actress (parents are both HBCU grads; I'm a working actress). I hope your students savor the movie (and centering of the lovely Black American lead). Hugs and respect from NYC & DC in 2023.
Don't forget the beautiful aria from La Wally sung by that beautiful opera singer, Wilhelmina Higgins Fernandez. Gorgeous. This music is beautiful too.
95 % Erik Satie "gymnopedié" and 5 % Richard Wright's "The Violent Sequence" for the "Zabriskie Point"-soundtrack (later re-written as "Us and Them" on Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon").
Now I understand why this sequence, this music transport me somewhere. It elevate my senses. It is sublime. When I went to Paris I had this in my mind the whole time
watching this film and hearing this song in my youth convinced me the transformative power visual and audio together can have on creating an experience. I can't even remember anything about the plot or the characters, but I'll always remember where I was then and the feelings it pulled from within me.
Diciembre 1981,Santiago de Chile.Puedo recordar a varios haciendo fila para ingresar ansiosos a mirar la peli y luego constatar lo maravillado que salieron tras pasar la historia frente a sus retinas.Incluso intentábamos imitar este paseo con mi chica de por entonces,cuando transitábamos por las desoladas y antiguas calles de Ñuñoa.
Tres romantic. I adored that movie. It encompass the beauty of human with all our flaws. One of my favorite romantic movie. Check "in the mood for love " A classic.
Memories, memories *smile *sigh* (I thought for a while it was Eric Sati's gynopedia..) The movie, is just so wonderful.., some said later, but, it was just an action/criminal.. !(?) i only saw the beautiful romantic, and was in love with Cynthia/Wilhelmenia ..(and the music )❤
The inspiration for the opera singer character in Delacorta's novel, of which this film is an adaptation, was in fact Jessye Norman. Apparently Norman had a devoted male fan in Europe, who would travel around to attend her concerts and met her once. But the singer playing the character in Diva is Wilhelmina Wiggins Fernandez, who became popular and well remembered in Europe as a result of the film.
Sorry, I forgot. Jessye Norman. What a voice she had? My husband and I would follow her through Europe and the States. She sang a lot of Berlioz, who brought us together.
@@augmentedkeys5971 Haha. One of the Gnossienes (the 7th?) is better known as the first part of Trois Morçeaux en forme de Poire, I think? I have a 5 CD set of Satie's complete piano music on which the Gnossiennes are all over the place apart from the first four.
I was 17 when this film was released.
I saw it at the cinema.
I'm 60 now and this is still one of the best films I've seen
去年、秋が深まる10月にこれをDVDで見た。最後に見てから40年くらい時が経過していた。泣きたくなった。この映像のなかでは、登場人物も自分も若々しいままである。
❤1981💛 "Diva"2023💙Some "Moments" never fade
I lived in Paris in the late 80s. Often walked through it with this on my cassette headset (remember them?)

Great film. The aria sung by Wilhelmina Higgins Fernandez is so beautiful, so moving. This music is haunting. One of the best in film music.

no bread, no butter, only zen
100% agreed. and the aesthetic beauty of this movie was way ahead of its time (1981).
Yes. Number 3.
agree, it seemed to have a big influence on the music videos of the 80s. Original cinematography, I remember it well.
One of the Most romantic songs I have ever heard ❤❤❤
En ce début d'année 2022 , c'est la tristesse .Adieu Jean-Jacques Beineix .J'espère que vous serez bercé par la voix des anges .
It's such a lovely song and one of my favorite romantic melodies.
It's simply one of my favorite French films in the post-New Wave cinema genre.
Most Romantic and beautiful song Ever ❤️
other than Art of Noise "Moments in Love"

好きな映画のベスト5に入るかな。。曲や映像、映画の中の空気感、個性豊かなキャラクター、演出等々。今でも面白いなと思う。
... Straight to the heart. Wonderful art, embedded in my psyche.
Gods, I love this picture.
watching this film and hearing this song in my youth convinced me the transformative power visual and audio together can have on creating an experience. I can't even remember anything about the plot or the characters, but I'll always remember where I was then and the feelings it pulled from within me.
Beautiful music. And the film was so good too.
Wonderful relaxing melody and an amazing film in the early 80th years! Wish I would be there again!
Enchanting and evocative piece which I'd originally thought was by Erik Satie
Yup … one of his gymnopedies
The movie just draws you in. I love when a story is told with minimal dialogue. So much was revealed through pictures and sound. ❤️❤️❤️
So romantic ❤️👍😘

Glorious. Paris in a nutshell.
jesse norman is lovely

Hold still, for Pete's sake.
This song sounds alot like Claude Debussy’s compositions.
More like Erik Satie, especially his Gnossienne no. 5
@@peterfitton4529 Exactly! With the delay effect. I play all 6 of the 7 Gnossienne's.
@@augmentedkeys5971 Haha. One of the Gnossienes (the 7th?) is better known as the first part of Trois Morçeaux en forme de Poire, I think?
I have a 5 CD set of Satie's complete piano music on which the Gnossiennes are all over the place apart from the first four.
@@peterfitton4529 It's Gnossienne No.3
Please 🙏 Don't☮️
Сезар 82. Я не умаляю заслуг композитора, но у Марриконе было лучше!
