[QUOTE="ratski, post: 1334239, member: 936"] Figured Id try to clear up any mess I might have stirred. [url]http://www.screenarchives.com/title_detail.cfm?ID=7253[/url] The music in The Dirty Dozen was by De Vol. De Vol provided two original songs for the film: a German ballad (as radio source music) with lyrics and vocals by Sibylle Siegfried (the director's wife), and an anachronistically 1960s pop song, "Bramble Bush," with lyrics by Mack David, performed by Trini Lopez (one of the dozen in the film). The song in Saving Private Ryan is apparently a period piece by Edith Piaf. [url]http://www.sproe.com/t/tu-es-partout-english.html[/url] This Edith Piaf song (written by Piaf and Marguerite Monnot) was featured in the French film Montmartre sur Seine, which premiered in 1941 and featured Piaf in the role of Lily. During the preparations to defend Ramelle on June 13th, Corporal Upham provided a translation of this song, which was playing on a record player found amidst the blasted remains of the French town. Sorry for any confusion. I was watching The Dirty Dozen last night and remembered the scene from Private Ryan. Just was struck by the similarity and thought it might be sort of a salute in one movie to another. Dave [/QUOTE]
