This song “Les Feuilles Mortes“ was wrote by the french surrealist poet Jacques Prévert. In 1945, Prévert wrote the film script “Les Portes de la Nuit“ (a film of Marcel Carné - 1946), from a ballet “Le Rendez-Vous“ created by Roland Petit in 1945.
The two first verses of a song give the title : “Les enfants qui s’aiment s’embrassent debout/contre les Portes de la Nuit“. Jean Gabin and Marlene Dietrich had acepted to play the two characters, but at last, they changed for another movie : “Martin Roumagnac“.
A young french singer presented by Edith Piaf :
Yves Montand plays this very pessimist film and sung “Les Feuilles Mortes“.
The music was created, before, by Joseph Kosma for the ballet “Le Rendez-Vous“ in 1945, and Prévert wrote, after, the words for the movie.
The poem was published, after the death of Jacques Prévert, in the book “Soleil de Nuit“ in 1980.
Thanks PAM!
