I’m 29 and grew up with a Diva poster in my room, not knowing what it was of course, then I found the film on my own and made the connection. I played this song for my parents earlier this summer, who saw it in college in the 80’s as they were falling in love (hence the poster in a child’s bedroom) and asked them if they could identify the song, just playing the music on Spotify. They both immediately said ‘Diva’ - Knowing after all those years; that’s when I knew it was something special.
What a sweet post. We saw the film in San Francisco when it came out as well. It was an emblematic film of that New Wave time. Oh! I want to go back in time!
Diciembre 1981,Santiago de Chile.Puedo recordar a varios haciendo fila para ingresar ansiosos a mirar la peli y luego constatar lo maravillado que salieron tras pasar la historia frente a sus retinas.Incluso intentábamos imitar este paseo con mi chica de por entonces,cuando transitábamos por las desoladas y antiguas calles de Ñuñoa.
I watched this so many years ago with my friend/husband/brother/father/uncle/Grandpa... He passed suddenly last September... We were high school sweethearts, met in band class ❤... I’m listening tonight with our granddaughter...❤
This has been called with good reason the most beautiful episode on film. I teach this movie in my literary genres course at an HBCU. It is one of my favorite films, ever.
Roger, I'm late to your party, but I'm an actress (parents are both HBCU grads; I'm a working actress). I hope your students savor the movie (and centering of the lovely Black American lead). Hugs and respect from NYC & DC in 2023.
Don't forget the beautiful aria from La Wally sung by that beautiful opera singer, Wilhelmina Higgins Fernandez. Gorgeous. This music is beautiful too.
I was in high school and had just spent the summer with a French family in Paris when I saw it alone in the theater back home in the States. My heart hurts whenever I see it or hear the soundtrack. It’s one of my favorite movies, ever.
On my list as one of my 10 favorite films of all time. A dreamy, Zen-like movie, with startling scenes, plot, and music. Joy-full. mysterious, funny, and very Zen.
Agreed. I use it in my literary genres class. It's all about genres and form on one level, but also such a terrifically told and shot story, a true classic.
Now I understand why this sequence, this music transport me somewhere. It elevate my senses. It is sublime. When I went to Paris I had this in my mind the whole time
95 % Erik Satie "gymnopedié" and 5 % Richard Wright's "The Violent Sequence" for the "Zabriskie Point"-soundtrack (later re-written as "Us and Them" on Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon").
watching this film and hearing this song in my youth convinced me the transformative power visual and audio together can have on creating an experience. I can't even remember anything about the plot or the characters, but I'll always remember where I was then and the feelings it pulled from within me.
Tres romantic. I adored that movie. It encompass the beauty of human with all our flaws. One of my favorite romantic movie. Check "in the mood for love " A classic.
Memories, memories *smile *sigh* (I thought for a while it was Eric Sati's gynopedia..) The movie, is just so wonderful.., some said later, but, it was just an action/criminal.. !(?) i only saw the beautiful romantic, and was in love with Cynthia/Wilhelmenia ..(and the music )❤
I've got Diva on dvd I will never part from it It reminds me of Beyond the Clouds Directed by John Malkovich and starring John Malkovich and Sophie Marceau John Malkovich and Sophie Marceau

I was 17 when this film was released.
I saw it at the cinema.
I'm 60 now and this is still one of the best films I've seen
去年、秋が深まる10月にこれをDVDで見た。最後に見てから40年くらい時が経過していた。泣きたくなった。この映像のなかでは、登場人物も自分も若々しいままである。
I couldn't agree more. Films of this calibre as so few and far between in these days of CGI. Young people don't know what they're missing!
I lived in Paris in the late 80s. Often walked through it with this on my cassette headset (remember them?)
❤1981💛 "Diva"2023💙Some "Moments" never fade

Great film. The aria sung by Wilhelmina Higgins Fernandez is so beautiful, so moving. This music is haunting. One of the best in film music.
One of the Most romantic songs I have ever heard ❤❤❤

One of the best films ever.
Yes
It's such a lovely song and one of my favorite romantic melodies.
It's simply one of my favorite French films in the post-New Wave cinema genre.

no bread, no butter, only zen
100% agreed. and the aesthetic beauty of this movie was way ahead of its time (1981).
Yes. Number 3.
Would make my top 10 also.
好きな映画のベスト5に入るかな。。曲や映像、映画の中の空気感、個性豊かなキャラクター、演出等々。今でも面白いなと思う。
This Film & Soundtrack so impacted My Life.

This movie is absolutely glorious

En ce début d'année 2022 , c'est la tristesse .Adieu Jean-Jacques Beineix .J'espère que vous serez bercé par la voix des anges .
Beautiful music. And the film was so good too.
Wonderful relaxing melody and an amazing film in the early 80th years! Wish I would be there again!
... Straight to the heart. Wonderful art, embedded in my psyche.
The movie just draws you in. I love when a story is told with minimal dialogue. So much was revealed through pictures and sound. ❤️❤️❤️
So romantic ❤️👍😘
The most beautiful aire ever written for piano.
Wunderschön, ich liebe es seit Ewigkeiten!
We French are famous for this......No Bread, No Butter, Only Zen......
so powerful this tune on your state of mind ...
Enchanting and evocative piece which I'd originally thought was by Erik Satie
Yup … one of his gymnopedies
Pour mon 1er janvier 2019 , j'aime encore ce film bien des années plus tard .
YES YES YES!!!!!!
This is one of my all time favourite films.
I loved this film and this music when it came out. I am a suckered for the Maj7 5713 inversion. I also love Leon Thomas's Echoes.
Tres romantic.
