A very beautiful, delicate rendition of "Tell It On The Mountain".

lovely picture of Marie as well.
Marie Laforet is one of my absolute favourites - unfortunately, the only material I've been able to find are two or three inexpensive but somewhat slight compilations - you know, those master serie/les talents du siecle type-issues covering a range of French artists. I love her voice and choice of material. And she appeared in one of my all-time favorite films as Marge in Plein Soleil - Purple Noon - based on the Highsmith Ripley novel and later remaded and expanded upon by anthony minghella in the Talented Mr. Ripley.
I'd be curious to hear/know if her catalogue extends beyond these wonderful collections.
I haven't had a chance to see any of her films before. But with her voice and looks, I'm sure her films would be a treat!
