Hello, Sgt:
Have you seen this set from ModCinema? I haven't viewed it, but I wanted to mention it to you. Judging by the title, they also have a Vol. One.
Best,
Barbara

Wishing you a very happy birthday today Francoise......
bon anniversaire....Avec tout mon amour...
Sgt S
I suppose we should get back to the FILM part of her career.......
Her penultimate film was released in Sept 1972 "Les Colombes" directed by Jean-Claude Lord...
Here is the title song sung by Lise Thouin who also stars in the film.
Cheers

Fantastic what can be achieved with Digital Paint......
Francoise evolves before your very eyes......(apart from her eyes which are blue/grey its spot on.....)
See photo at top of this page for best view of eye-colour....
Cheers

By 1970 the trademark long hair was sadly making way for more contemporary styles......
Here's a very catchy single she recorded that year.....unfortunately the audio/video is slightly out of synch.....
Cheers

Coming up next could well turn out to be the rarest clip of Francoise I've yet come across.
Found on some German site.....luckily this clip has been well preserved. Note the heavy use of make-up which I have never seen on any other clip.....
You may well be some of the first people in the UK to see this one....
Enjoy...
Cheers
Sgt S
You lucky people.....
Here's the first in a beautiful set of Italian magazine cover photos that have been un-earthed recently.....Some stunning photos...
That's just a taster....more to follow
Cheers
Sgt S
ps....I'll try and get some translations...
The above magazine cover shows Francoise and Italian singer/songwriter Edoardo Vianello enjoying a drop of the el vino.....
Edoardo wrote the music to one of her songs "Il est des choses" released on her 1966 LP "Francoise"..
Edoardo had a number 1 hit of his own in Italy in Jan 1964.....
Here's another from the magazine covers set. A gorgeous pic of Francoise on the set of "Grand Prix" issue dated 13th Oct 1966.....
Cheers
Sgt S
Time for another of those newly discovered magazine covers.....
Another one from "Sogno"

Françoise Hardy has the brilliant idea of starting a Sgt Sunshine thread on the lesfilmsfrançais site!
"Jacques Dutronc, cherie, what language am I singing this song in today? Serbo-Croat, Japanese or Gujarati?"
Cheers Agutterfan...Fame at last...
Here's another clip I've found that's rather interesting. Francoise singing her biggest UK hit "All over the World" in another language but not sure which one...
The clips are rather good including my fav the make-up/lipstick snapshot which leads into Francoise baptising some very lucky fellow in Champagne...
Don't blink or you'll miss it.....in fact run it through twice to prove to yourself that is Francoise holding the bottle...
Enjoy..
Cheers
Sgt S
While Jenny & Agutterfan get there glad-rags on, me and Francoise get to work in the kitchen......
(I've just nipped down to the cellar to get a rather fruity red by the way)
Cheers
