- Just Rita Hayworth and Debussy's "Clair de Lune."
I've always loved this composition, especially this orchestral version. It has been featured in a lot of films, including one of my favourites - no, not "Twilight," but "Frankie and Johnny" (1991). :-)
Debussy's composition was inspired by Paul Verlaine's French poem of the same name:
Clair de Lune
Votre âme est un paysage choisi
Que vont charmant masques et bergamasques
Jouant du luth et dansant et quasi
Tristes sous leurs déguisements fantasques.
Tout en chantant sur le mode mineur
L'amour vainqueur et la vie opportune
Ils n'ont pas l'air de croire à leur bonheur
Et leur chanson se mêle au clair de lune,
Au calme clair de lune triste et beau,
Qui fait rêver les oiseaux dans les arbres
Et sangloter d'extase les jets d'eau,
Les grands jets d'eau sveltes parmi les marbres.
Translation:
Moonlight
Your soul is as a moonlit landscape fair,
Peopled with maskers delicate and dim,
That play on lutes and dance and have an air
Of being sad in their fantastic trim.
The while they celebrate in minor strain
Triumphant love, effective enterprise,
They have an air of knowing all is vain,-
And through the quiet moonlight their songs rise,
The melancholy moonlight, sweet and lone,
That makes to dream the birds upon the tree,
And in their polished basins of white stone
The fountains tall to sob with ecstasy. - Розваги
Beautiful pictures of a beautiful lady.
Rita is absolutely stunning !
The most beautiful woman in the world of cinema for me and "Clair de Lune" of Debussy. Amazing video!
I am fascinated with Rita and her beauty!!!!!
Sublime in all senses! Thank you, Ellen!
Oh, this is beautiful. Rita was so very stunning. Of course I love her in Blood and Sand but who has ever failed to be wowed by her in Gilda when she throws her head back....beautiful, classy woman.

Wonderful Rita Hayworth' pictures and great music. Thanks for this great share my friend.
Wonderful video you've created. Images of Rita go stunningly with Debussy's composition.
Like your choice of music. I love "Clair de Lune" too. And Rita Hayworth is amazing !!!
Beautiful composition and flow of images. Breathtaking pictures of her with such a pretty song!
No doubt...they were stunning together in Blood and Sand. I mean, one just sits there and watches them in all that glorious color and your mouth just hangs open you are in such awe of these two incredibly beautiful people on the screen. Like the seen where she throws the flowers and he walks up and picks one up and looks at her....OMG! Part of you wants to say "They are not real, no one has ever looked like that". lolol
I believed that this music only matched the moon and the clouds, but I confess I was surprised! I'm dazzled by so much beauty, both the music and the actress, thanks for compatilhar this gem.

Pretty time of rite
this is one of my favorite scores of Debussy. And I love this poem. And though I like the poem you have in english... it is not an accurate translation of the poem... But it's still pretty.

@et7waage1
They all sing in a minor key
Of all-conquering love and careless fortune
They do not seem to believe in their happiness
And their song melts away in the light of the moon.
The still moonlight, sad and beautiful
That gives dreams to the birds in the trees
And makes the fountain cry tears of ecstasy
The tall fountain, slender among the marble statues.
@et7waage1 that is the best I can do. I believe it is extremely accurate and true to it's original meaning. I hope you like it. It is a beautiful poem, rich with symbolism.
Il suo colore era il biondo rosso
@et7waage1 I will have to do it in three parts b/c of the character restrictions
Your soul is choicest of countries
Where charming masked and costumed figures go
Playing the lute and dancing and almost
Sad beneath their fantastic disguises.
@tickledpink2U I can't believe I spelled "scene" as "seen".......too funny.
@et7waage1 I appreciate that it is tough to translate things and keep it really. I didn't think it was your translation. And I'm no great translator but it really doesn't sound like the same poem. Sorry! Please, I mean no disrespect, but because I would like you to see what the real words are to this poem, perhaps I will take a stab at translating it for you.
