Dear sriksp,
It is called "J' ai deux amours".
The song was created in 1930 for Joséphine Baker (lyrics by Géo Koger and Henri Varna; music by Vincent Scotto).
The version you liked at the end of the movie is by an... American jazz singer, Madeleine Peyroux, from her CD " Careless Love".
She was partially raised in France and began her career on the streets there :))

Yves, a French guy settled in Brazil

Thank you for the information, dear yvesberg.
I loved this song when I heard it play at the end of the film. I looked for its name as well as of the singer at the film credits and I saw exactly what you stated here: "J' ai deux amours" by Madeleine Peyroux.

I loved the film and the song. However, it is good to have the historical facts straight, as stated by one of the posters on another thread.
