French (?) film and theme
9 Answers
I may have dreamed this, but I seem to remember seeing a film from years back (possibly French) where a blonde actress (Catherine Deneuve, perhaps?) was driving an open-top car, wind blowing through her hair, to the strains of an annoying little tune.
It had quite a dream-like, easy listening feel to it and went (here goes):
Baah daah daah da da da da da, da da da da da (the "da"s are quite quick) over and over again. Now, every time I see an open top car being driven by a blonde woman, this stupid tune goes through my head. Can anyone please tell me the name of the film, or tune, or both? Failing that, anyone know a good psychiatrist?

Doesn't seem to have anything to do with Catherine Deneuve or anyone similar, but it's entirely possible I may have two films mixed up. Thanks..
LeMarchand - sorry, not The Girl From Ipanema (although a similar feel to it). I admire your persistence though :-)

I think the song you're looking for is Goodbye Sadness (Tristeza) by Astrud Gilberto. She's a Brazilian artist who recorded Girl From Ipanema. Go to:-
