Nous sommes 8 mai 1927, sur la piste de l'aérodrome du Bourget. Il encore très tôt, mais des invités de prestige ont fait le déplacement, dans la nuit, depuis Paris. On peut apercevoir Joséphine Baker, Maurice Chevalier, Mistinguett, mais aussi le célèbre aéronaute Charles Dollfus ainsi que des militaires, des généraux, des officiers. Toutes et tous observent deux hommes montés dans un avion blanc orné d'une de tête de mort noire sur deux tibias croisés accompagnés d'un cercueil et de deux flambeaux. L'avion a été baptisé : l'Oiseau blanc. Destination : l'Amérique du Nord, en traversant l'Atlantique. Cela n'a jamais été fait ! Les deux pilotes ont pour nom : Charles Nungesser et François Coli. Tous deux font un geste pour dire au revoir et s'apprêtent à lancer leur engin pour prendre leur envol. L'avion roule de plus en plus vite, quitte le sol, parcourt quelques mètres puis semble retomber. Les spectateurs retiennent leur souffle. Finalement, l'Oiseau blanc reprend son ascension. Les deux pilotes mettent le cap vers la Manche. A 6h30, l'avion franchit la frontière de la terre et passe au-dessus de la mer. Personne ne se doute qu'on le voit pour la dernière fois. Charles Nungesser et François Coli disparaissent pour toujours. Ici commence l'une des plus grandes énigmes de l'histoire de l'aviation. Retour sur le parcours de Charles Nungesser, as de la Grande Guerre, boxeur, acteur de cinéma, époux d'une riche américaine, disparu en plein vol. Invité : Patrick de Gmeline, historien militaire. Auteur de : « Charles Nungesser, de l'as de la grande guerre au disparu de l'Atlantique » ; éd. du Rocher.

EPISODE 75 - “MEHAR BABA BRINGS SPIRITUALITY TO OLD HOLLYWOOD” - 2/17/2025 During the 1920s and 1930s, a spiritual movement swept through Hollywood. It seems the Hollywood elite were about more than just speakeasies, flappers, and decadence. Some were searching for inner-peace and often found it -- at least temporarily -- in these various religious movements that popped up. One spiritual leader who came to prominence was India's MEHAR BABA, who believed that spirituality and metaphysics were interconnected. Stars like MARY PICKFORD, TALLULAH BANKHEAD, and MARIE DRESSLER were admirers. And when Baba visited Hollywood in May of 1932, you'll never believe where he stayed! Get enlightened and listen to this fascinating story of spirituality in Hollywood.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: The God Man (1964), by C.B.Purdom; Mehar Baba, www.meharcenter.org “Mehar Baba: A Brief Biography,” www.avatarmeharbabatrust.org; “Pete Townsend Speaks of Mehar Baba,” www.petetoensend.net; “Mehar Baba: The Compassionate Father,” www.ramdass.org; “Highest of the High: Full Message By Mehar Baba with Introduction,” YouTube,com; Wikipedia.com; Movies Mentioned:  The Devil and the Deep (1932); starring Tallulah Bankhead, Gary Cooper, Charles, Laughton, & Cary Grant; Love Me Tonight (1932), starring Maurice Chevalier, Jeanette MacDonald, Charles Ruggles, & Myrna Loy; Grand Hotel (1932), starring Greta Garbo, John Barrymore, Joan Crawford, Lionel Barrymore, Wallace Beery, & Lewis Stone; --------------------------------- http://www.airwavemedia.com Please contact sales@advertisecast.com if you would like to advertise on our podcast.

And this time Dave has brought even more nostalgic reading material to give some context for this studio content. We also launch another new series feature: a review of our favourite movies from the previous 1930-1948 round. Turning to the Paramount movies we watched for this episode, we struggle to come to terms with the pointless battle of the sexes in Lubitsch's The Love Parade, starring Maurice Chevalier and Jeanette MacDonald, who are having a lot of sexy Pre-Code fun until the dictates of storytelling demand conflict; and struggle through a nigh-unwatchable transfer/copy of the sturdy operetta The Vagabond King, starring MacDonald and Dennis King. In both films, the adorable Lillian Roth delights. And finally, as if all of that weren't enough, a New Year's Eve throwback (by the time this is posted) in Fear and Moviegoing in Toronto: we watched the beloved When Harry Met Sally and the cult classic 200 Cigarettes at the Revue Cinema.  Time Codes: 0h 00m 25s: 1930 in film + Paramount Recap 0h 21m 10s: THE LOVE PARADE [dir.

A propósito del Cubakústica anterior donde repasamos algo del cancionero mexicano en los repertorios de cantantes y agrupaciones cubanas, comenzamos nuestro recorrido, a la inversa, con el primer charro cantor que tuvo el cine de oro azteca: Tito Guízar. Con el respaldo de la jazz band "Casino de la Playa", escuchamos su hermosa versión de "La rosa blanca", versos de nuestro apóstol José Martí musicalizados por el maestro Ernesto Lecuona. Grabación habanera para discos RCA Víctor de comienzos de los 50. Retrocedemos poco más de una década. Los antiguos estudios de la CMQ Radio, entonces recién ubicados en la intersección de Monte y Prado, nos permiten disfrutar del arte del llamado "Tenor de las Américas" Don Pedro Vargas. Se trata del vals canción "Muñeca de cristal ", le acompañó al piano su autor: Ernesto Lecuona. La cantante veracruzana Toña la Negra acogía el afro de la pianista y compositora cubana Margarita Lecuona: "Babalú". Nuevamente otra conocida etiqueta norteamericana nos devuelve otro clásico cubano. En pleno tránsito los años 30 la canción "Aquellos ojos verdes", letra del cantante Adolfo Utrera y melodía del pianista Nilo Menéndez, conquistaba los corazones del mundo. Es la formación original del famosísimo trío "Los Panchos": Gil, Navarro y Avilés, desde el catálogo Columbia de sello rojo. A continuación dos figuras icónicas de la cultura mexicana. Germán Valdés "Tin Tan" y Jorge Negrete brillaron con igual intensidad en los apartados actoral y musical. Inolvidables sus presentaciones en Cuba. "La gloria eres tú", el bolero del King: José Antonio Méndez antecede al tango congo de Eliseo Grenet: "Cuba de mi vida". En tres tiempos un clásico de la música popular. El Septeto Gloria Cubana –bajo la dirección de Feliciano García- fue una de las primeras agrupaciones que incorporó el piano al formato sonero, ejecutado en este caso por María Teresa Ovando, esposa del músico. El 5 de diciembre de 1928 el “Gloria Cubana” -con trompeta y piano- grabó “El pelotero”, un son original de su director que por esos raros caprichos de la música popular permanecerá en lo adelante en el repertorio de muchas agrupaciones, dentro y fuera de la isla, con el título de "Pelotero la bola". Mediando la década del 40 el sonero Alberto Ruiz –con su Conjunto Kubavana- lo adaptó a la guaracha-rumba con el título de “Que se corra la bola”. A propósito del natalicio 90 de Luis Donald recordaremos el arte de este formidable intérprete. En dos tiempos recordamos el sentimiento de Luis Donald. En 1959 inició su carrera como solista con el apoyo de las disqueras independientes Neptuno y Puchito. Música popular, el lenguaje más universal. En una de las líneas de su original versión de "El Manisero", grabada a comienzos de los años 30 con su banda del Cotton Club, el genial trompetista, cantante y compositor Louis Armstrong se disculpa por su pobre dominio del español pero al mismo tiempo demuestra estar bien informado asegurando que en Cuba la mariguana se conoce como "maní". Su vínculo con otros músicos de la isla justifica además el inesperado estribillo final cuando le canta a "María". Del jazz norteamericano de 1931 nos vamos al music hall francés. Fue el actor, cantante y bailarín Maurice Chevalier uno de sus representantes más sobresalientes. El mismo año, en su personal estilo, dejaba en discos Víctor el famoso tango congo de Eliseo Grenet: "Mamá Inés". En la despedida el gran Nat King Cole. Formidable pianista y cantante en su famosa producción habanera "Cole en español" producida por la dupla Capitol - Panart, junto a la orquesta del cabaret Tropicana, a pesar de no poder rebasar las dificultades fonéticas de la palabra "delirio" no dejó pasar la oportunidad y grabó su versión del clásico del maestro César Portillo de la Luz, al piano. Despedida en chá con Nat King Cole. "El bodeguero", original del flautista, arreglista y compositor Richard Egües.

Just in time for this year's Summer Olympics in Paris, Vintage Classic Radio invites you to a nostalgic journey through vintage Paris with a lineup of four captivating radio shows. Our celebration starts with the "Screen Guild Theater" and its episode "Alone in Paris," originally aired on April 30, 1939. This episode unfolds a poignant tale of love and longing in the heart of Paris, featuring Cary Grant and Irene Dunn. The story beautifully captures the essence of Parisian romance amidst the backdrop of pre-war Europe, enhancing the drama with rich dialogues and period-authentic ambiance. Next, we tune into "This is Paris," featuring the charm of Maurice Chevalier in the episode "C'est Si Bon Palais De La Concorde," broadcast on July 14, 1949. Chevalier, doubling as host and performer, guides listeners through the famed Palais De La Concorde with narratives and performances by Edith Piaf and Charles Boyer, capturing the post-war Parisian ambiance. The episode weaves a tapestry of musical and historical insights, blending Chevalier's charismatic narration with the enchanting voices of Paris' most beloved artists. Our third highlight is the "CBS Radio Workshop" with the episode "Portrait of Paris," which aired on July 6, 1956. This broadcast intricately narrates the rich history and vibrant life of Paris through compelling stories and characters portrayed by Gérard Philipe and Simone Signoret, who delve into the deep layers of Parisian spirit. The episode serves as a time capsule, exploring themes of love, art, and revolution, thus painting a comprehensive portrait of a city that has always been a beacon of culture. Finally, "Paris Star Time" offers a variety show format, starring Jacqueline Francois, Jean Bretonniere, and The Four Beards in a program that showcases French cultural flair. This show, produced by the French Broadcasting System in North America, not only entertains but also acts as a cultural conduit, reflecting the resilience and artistic contributions of post-war France. With a mixture of traditional and contemporary French music, it offers an auditory feast that celebrates France's recovery and cultural renaissance post-World War II. Join us on Vintage Classic Radio as we step back in time to explore the enchanting streets of Paris, reliving its romantic, cultural, and artistic legacy through the voices and stories of its most iconic figures.

Résister, par David Christoffel De la musique pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale, il nous reste beaucoup de traces dans les journaux, dans les correspondances des musiciens qui ont pu être publiées, dans les témoignages que les grandes figures ont bien voulu livrer à la radio. C'est comme ça que musicologues et historiens font couramment référence aux initiatives et aux positions que ces grands noms de la musique ont pu prendre sous le régime de Vichy. Mais les grands noms ne sont pas les seuls acteurs du monde musical à avoir résisté et œuvré à la libération de la France du joug nazi. Il y a, par exemple, les machinistes du Palais Garnier. Le Palais Garnier est devenu très tôt pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale, un lieu stratégique et nodal sous l'occupation de Paris par les Allemands. Si bien que les archives de ses services techniques nous permettent aujourd'hui d'élargir le récit sur la vie musicale de l'époque. David Christoffel reçoit Aurélien Poidevin qui est professeur agrégé d'histoire à l'université de Rouen, avec Philippe Morin (France Musique), qui n'a jamais cessé de collectionner les disques, y compris ceux que les Parisiens des années 1940 pouvaient écouter.

Profitez de cette offre sur Apple Podcasts dès aujourd'hui ! Écoutez la suite du destin exceptionnel de Joséphine Baker, raconté par Virginie Girod. Star du music-hall, Joséphine Baker se met au service de la France dès le début de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Au côté de Maurice Chevalier, elle chante sur le front pour remonter le moral des troupes durant la bataille de France, en juin 1940. Mais l'engagement de Joséphine Baker va plus loin. Elle parvient à convaincre le renseignement militaire de la recruter : la meneuse de revue est reçue par le gratin européen et personne ne la fouille quand elle passe la douane. On est trop occupé à lui demander des autographes ! Rien qu'en participant aux soirées mondaines, Joséphine Baker recueille de précieuses informations sur l'entrée en guerre de l'Italie. Quant à sa propriété des Milandes, elle sert de cache pour les résistants et leurs armes. Une péritonite met cependant fin à ses activités de renseignement. Alors, Joséphine Baker entame une tournée de gala afin de lever des fonds pour la Résistance. Au sortir de la guerre, elle est une héroïne. Le temps du music-hall semble révolu ; Joséphine Baker se mobilise sur d'autres fronts. Elle adopte 12 enfants à travers le monde pour fonder sa famille “arc-en-ciel” et montrer au monde que la fraternité n'est pas un vain mot. Joséphine Baker est également mobilisée contre le racisme. Aux Etats Unis, elle fait même un discours aux côtés de Martin Luther King ! Des ennuis financiers précipitent son déclin. Joséphine Baker est obligée de vendre son château des Milandes et de remonter sur scène. En 1975, c'est son baroud d'honneur : pour ses 50 ans de carrières, elle monte un spectacle qui retrace sa vie incroyable, de Broadway à la Résistance. Le Tout-Paris est toujours là pour l'acclamer, mais la star est épuisée. Elle meurt des suites d'une attaque cérébrale après 14 représentations. 46 ans plus tard, la France ouvre ses portes à celle qui a tant donné pour son pays d'adoption.

Between Us: Stories of Unconscious Bias

"One of the things that always struck me is it takes a village to raise a child. Right? And that's how we grew up. We had a whole neighborhood bringing us up, we could stroll into anybody's house and be fed by some aunty or the other. Right, and the parents didn't worry. Now to the elderly, it takes a community to transition the elder into death. It takes a community you need the support expanded. You need, you know, you need all of the support of not just family in your old age. I think it needs a community. I think it needs the community of elderly who can empathize, who know exactly what you're going through and it's not the younger who can empathize, it's the same age." When Shubha Priya was in her teens, she heard Maurice Chevalier singing the lyrics of a song in the movie Gigi: ‘Oh I'm glad that I'm not young anymore!” Struck by the way he sang it with such conviction, she wondered how growing old could ever be joyful, Fast forward to her 60s, Shubha moved with her mother to what most people referred to as an ‘old age home'. The stark side of ageing was visible all around her, a daily reminder of a Shakespearean vision coming true. Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything. Shubha's mother passed away in 2021. But Shubha chose to stay on at the old age home. In between the teenage years and those of living in an old age home, Shubha served as a Creative Director in leading advertising agencies around the world. She is currently fulfilling her lost childhood dreams of being an author and musician. She wrote, illustrated and designed her book of satirical verses for adults, called Whimsical Brew. Shubha is hoping to keep dementia at bay by learning to play the piano!

La trágica muerte de su hermano, Perico, en 1920, durante un ensayo de un número en San Sebastián, le marcó de por vida pero le obligó a buscarse un especio en el mundo del circo con más fervor que antes. Parodiaba a hipnólogos e ilusionistas en números hilarantes para el público. Ya con su nombre artístico, Ramper, era capaz de memorizar párrafos enteros de libros, enciclopedias y crear monólogos cómicos de gran genialidad y humor, empleando el doble sentido. Durante la Guerra Civil estuvo sitiado en Madrid donde era llamado para animar con sus espectáculos a milicianos. Una vez finalizada la guerra, también era admirado por los nacionales que asistían, entusiasmados, sus participaciones en los circos y en el «music hall». Eso no le impidió hacer chistes sobre Franco y otros personajes de la época. Cuarto Milenio, a través de Pablo Villarrubia, localizó al nieto de Ramper, José Ramón Mariscal Álvarez, quien reveló aspectos desconocidos de la vida íntima de su abuelo y de su archivo fotográfico inédito que presentamos en este reportaje.

Gigi is a 1958 movie musical based on a 1944 French novella, directed by Vincente Minnelli and featuring a screenplay by Alan Jay Lerner. The film starred Leslie Caron, Louis Jordan, and Maurice Chevalier, and followed the story of a bored French playboy Gaston attempting to reignite a spark in his life, and finding it in a young friend of the family, the titular Gigi. (Who appears in much less of the film than Gaston does.) The film was a major Academy Award winner in 1958, setting a record for sweeping 9 different Oscars, (A record that would be unbroken until 2003 when Lord Of The Rings: Return Of The King won 11.) and though Gigi is well-regarded by cinema historians, it has since developed a sour reputation for its themes of grooming and power imbalance.On a new episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott are in way over their heads watching Gigi with return guest Patrick S. Barry. Join the trio as they are thoroughly skeeved out by themes and attitudes that have aged like milk, and are equally amused and disgusted by the antics of Maurice Chevalier, the most French human being to have ever walked this Earth....with Lilz and Scott!

During the Disney100 centennial celebration of the Walt Disney Company, Disney's animated films and theme parks have been getting a lot of attention. But what about its live action legacy? Many may associate Disney live action with recent remakes or Marvel and Star Wars, but with over 300 films, Disney has 70+ years producing live action films. To celebrate this medium, hosts Courtney and Emily welcome back author Spencer Wright to talk about his new book, “The Enchanted Disney: Stories of Walt, Hollywood, and Live-Action Film.” Wright wanted to celebrate actors of the Hollywood era in which Walt created the Walt Disney Studios. Actors such as Suzanne Pleshette, Debbie Reynolds, Maurice Chevalier, and Peter Lorre may be best known for films from other cinema studios, but they also shared their talents with Disney and helped shape the contemporary live action Disney studio we know today.  Review Book of the Mouse Club on iTunes and Google Play and send any questions, comments, or suggestions to the hosts at bookofthemouseclub@gmail.com Follow Our Reading Journey On Social Media!

François Hadji-Lazaro et les Garçons bouchers sont au micro de Patricia Scott-Dunwoodie, dans le programme musical, Coda, au printemps 1988.?Humour noir et sens de la provocation sont au rendez-vous. Le fondateur du groupe mythique du punk français (disparu le 25 février 2023) raconte comment il a quitté le milieu du folk pour s'intéresser au folk-rock puis au rock avec le groupe Pigalle, avant de découvrir un autre état d'esprit avec le punk et de tenter quelque chose de plus radical avec Les Garçons bouchers. Ce qui caractérise François Hadji-Lazaro à travers toutes ces formations, c'est le souci de faire un rock populaire et de ne pas rejeter certaines influences qui ont pu bercer leur enfance. C'est pourquoi il apprécie les reprises comme avec les chansons de Maurice Chevalier ou Charles Aznavour.

En voici le troisième épisode, avec le groupe Les Garçons bouchers et François Hadji-Lazaro qui revient sur les lointaines influences de ce groupe du côté de la chanson française.

Ces Garçons bouchers seraient en quelque sorte les enfants illégitimes de Maurice Chevalier et de Johnny Rotten, le chanteur emblématique du groupe punk les Sex Pistols. Il y a un esprit destroy dans les chansons de Piaf François Hadji-Lazaro s'explique sur leur façon de reprendre les anciennes chansons qui font partie du patrimoine et du folklore français. Parfois ils modifient les paroles, mais pas toujours. Ils considèrent qu'il y a un esprit rock dans certaines chansons d'Edith Piaf ou de Fréhel par exemple, "la démarche, l'esprit étaient bien destroy, bien subversifs", estime-t-il, et restent d'actualité.

Nicole grew up in a French speaking household with her mother who had come to Australia from Paris in the 1950s, met Nicole's dad and settled here. It was a wonderful and unusual childhood not just because of the French influence. Nicole's father and grandfather were in the hotel business and owned the Ress Oriental Hotel in Collins Street Melbourne. When her mother saw the hotel she exclaimed to Nicole's father, with the plane trees and the architecture it looked like Paris, all it was missing were the tables and chairs on the terrasse on the street. So Nicole's father applied for a permit to have the outdoor tables and he then coined the phrase, "the Paris end of Collins Street" which has stuck to that part of Melbourne to this day!In this podcast chat we hear of Nicole's extraordinary life with two cultures and two countries in her heart. I was fascinated to hear of her experiences living in the city hotel in Melbourne with the Treasury Gardens as her back yard. As she grew up in this environment with guests like Maurice Chevalier staying at the hotel, she felt both French and Australian.  I loved her stories of times she visited Paris and France with her family. Especially the times she had experiences with extraordinary chefs and famous wine houses that most of us can only dream about! My favourite part of this podcast chat with Nicole is how she described her perfect French day. I have asked that question 90 times before, but this is the first time that a guest has taken me on a tour for the day where I could close my eyes and actually imagine myself there as Nicole walked me through one exquisite experience after another. She picked me as a cassis sorbet lover as we sat virtually under the orange trees in a Provence village looking out over the countryside to the Mediterranean in the distance.

The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane (1976) ​ The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane is a 1976 cross-genre film directed by Nicolas Gessner and starring Jodie Foster, Martin Sheen, Alexis Smith, Mort Shuman, and Scott Jacoby. It was a co-production of Canada and France and written by Laird Koenig, based on his 1974 novel of the same title.  The plot focuses on 13-year-old Rynn Jacobs (Foster), a child whose absent poet father and secretive behaviours prod the suspicions of her conservative small-town Maine neighbours. The adaptation, originally intended as a play, was filmed in Quebec on a small budget. The production later became the subject of controversy over reports that Foster had conflicts with producers over the filming and inclusion of a nude scene, but a 21-year-old body double (Foster's sister) was used. After a screening at the 1976 Cannes Film Festival, a court challenge was launched regarding distribution, and a general release followed in 1977.   Alice Sweet Alice (1976)   Alice, Sweet Alice (originally titled Communion) is a 1976 American slasher film co-written and directed by Alfred Sole, and starring Linda Miller, Paula Sheppard, and Brooke Shields in her film debut. Set in 1961 New Jersey, the film focuses on a troubled adolescent girl who becomes a suspect in the brutal murder of her younger sister at her First Communion, as well as in a series of unsolved stabbings that follow.  Inspired by Nicolas Roeg's Don't Look Now (1973) and the films of Alfred Hitchcock, writer-director Sole devised the screenplay with Rosemary Ritvo, an English professor who was his neighbor. At the time, Sole had been working as an architect restoring historic buildings in his hometown of Paterson, New Jersey, and several properties he had worked on were used as shooting locations. Filming took place throughout the summer of 1975 in Paterson and Newark. The film premiered at the Chicago International Film Festival under its original title, Communion, in November 1976, and was released under this title in London in September 1977. After being acquired by Allied Artists, it was re-titled Alice, Sweet Alice, and released in the United States on November 18, 1977. Another theatrical re-release occurred in 1981 under the title Holy Terror, which marketed the popularity of Shields after her performance in Louis Malle's Pretty Baby (1978). While not prosecuted for obscenity, the film was seized and confiscated in the UK under Section 3 of the Obscene Publications Act 1959 during the video nasty panic, and was controversial in Ireland due to its apparent anti-Catholic themes.   Opening Credits; Introduction (1.06); Background History (33.19); The Little Girl Who Lived Down the Lane (1976) Film Trailer (36.06); The Original (37.02); Let's Rate (1:22.57); Amazing Design Advertisement (1:43.44); Introducing the Double Feature (1:44.27); Alice Sweet Alice (1976) Film Trailer (1:46.31); The Attraction (1:48.12); How Many Stars (3:01.15); End Credits (3:23.15); Closing Credits (3:24.19)   Opening Credits– Epidemic Sound – copyright 2021.

White's classic ode to New York City, Here is New York, which opens, unforgettably: “On any person who desires such queer prizes, New York will bestow the gift of loneliness and the gift of privacy.” … So stay tuned to find out whether these books are keepers or never-repeaters! Marc Acito writes and directs musicals, including the upcoming film Mad Woman, starring and featuring the music of Storm Large. He also writes about musicals, including his thinly-veiled, autobiographical novel, How I Paid for College. And Marc is also a treasured former guest of Book Dreams from Episode 23, “Test-driving the A.I. That Claims to Predict & Help Create Bestsellers.” Find us on Twitter (@bookdreamspod) and Instagram (@bookdreamspodcast), or email us at contact@bookdreamspodcast.com.

Thank heaven, there's a new Worthy episode out! In this episode Ben and Jon are joined by Austin Gold to talk about the 1958 Best Picture winner "Gigi" and the 31st Academy Awards. The Vincente Minnelli directed musical starring Leslie Caron, Louise Jourdan and Maurice Chevalier, focuses on the budding relationship of a young French girl and a rich socialite.  At the 31st Academy Awards the film took home 9 Academy Awards, setting at record for the time. This episode focuses on the taboo nature of the film as well as how taboo films are treated today. The film's narrative focusing on an underage girl and older man creates controversy that was not discussed at the time of its release. Ben, Jon and Austin also go through the technical aspects of the film as well and how it is used overall.  Is Gigi Worthy for the Best Picture award of 1958?
