Edith et Marcel (183) starring Evelyne Bouix as Piaf set Piaf's love affair with boxer Marcel Cendan against a backdrop of the end of World War II, hotel suites in New York, transatlantic plane flights, Cerdan's loss of the world middleweight title to Jake Lamotta, and Piaf's gift for tragic love songs.
Christina Ricci became Piaf for a Kevyn Aucoin photoshoot.
I'm still looking for images from Piaf (1974) starring Brigitte Ariel which told the (well a) story of Piaf's early years, and the BBC mini-series Piaf (1984) starring Jane Lapotaire: if anyone can help me please email me.
