Brigitte Bardot's own singing voice?


Does anyone know whether that really is Brigitte Bardot's own singing voice in this film. It sounds a little mature for an 18 year old.

I know she sang a lot (she was as much a recording star in France as she was a movie star) but I haven't actually seen the movie. Now if I could get a DVD...

Hi FabuleuxDestin (what makes me think you may be French?)
Thanks for your post. There is more about this topic on the Need to Know board (I put it on there as well.)
It seems certain that it was Mlle Bardot's own voice - she is credited with it on the AllMusic website and I now have the Divine BB on DVD as well, and the voice is fairly unmistakeable.
I bought (if I remember correctly) the DVD of Manina from Amazon at a very reasonable price - and it is worth watching (and listening to).

Au revoir.....

Hi, i'm not french but je parle Francais and i'm a big fan of frendh films and music. Of course, I got my name from the full title of Amelie. I will have to check Amazon for this movie, haven't got around to it yet, but it's something I will soon... I can't belive it's a year since you sent your message! Sorry...

No problem, Fabuleux, thanks for taking the time to reply...even a year later...lol. But I have since learnt that it is in fact her own voice...and I bought the DVD too. It's very good...I recommend it. Best wishes.
