Best of World Radio Paris (WRP)

Today on Lost in Frenchlation we talk to the renowned director Diane Kurys about her most recent film Moi qui t’aimais (Me who loved you.) Diane has had a truly incredible career. In this episode she shares with us the story of her parents falling in love as Jews in Europe during the holocaust, how that influenced her films about the nuances of love and commitment, and of course we talk about what it was like to write and direct a film about the complicated marriage of two French Entertainment Icons, Simone Signoret and Yves Montand.

Moi qui t’aimais is the story of a famous love affair between French entertainment royalty: Simone Signoret and Yves Montand. They had a wild and deep, but also fraught love. They were married from the 50s until her death in 1981. During that time they became one of the most influential couples in France.
