What makes Private Half Day La Vie En Rose Movie Locations Tour in Paris a unique experience ?
Take a chance to see the iconic concert venue in the 9th arrondissement, the Olympia. The hall was established in 1893 by one of the Moulin Rouge venue creators. It had held plenty of opera, ballet, and music events before it was converted into a movie theater. Piaf’s friend Bruno Coquatrix opened it again as a concert venue in 1954, and Edith’s performance brought the popularity of the site to a new height. She performed there several times in four months, giving the most remarkable concerts of her career.
Set off to 67 Boulevard Lannes to see a small plaque on the house that says that Edith Piaf lived at the address for the last 10 years. It’s in this apartment that Charles Dumont presented Edith his song “Non, je ne regretted rien,” which she praised and welcomed despite her not being in a mood to meet him before. She said that that was the song she had been waiting for and that it would be a great success in her coming performance at the Olympia.
The movie takes us to the Parisian brasserie Julien Brewery, and it was indeed the place the singer frequented in real life. She even had table number 24. The history of the brewery dates back to 1903, although the building has even more to tell with the Cheval Blanc Inn being located there since 1787. The place was the first concert café in Paname in the 19th century.
Stroll along this beautiful 1,135-meter-long street to see a place where Edith Piaf was singing. In 1935, Louis Leplee spotted her in the street and invited the singer to his cabaret, Le Gerny’s. Although she was supposed to sing there for a week, her triumphal performances made her stay there for seven months. Unfortunately, Louis was assassinated in 1936, and everything came to a halt there.
Get to the Montmartre staircase to remember the scene from the movie and an old Belleville staircase, which is now gone. Recall a moment when a policeman explains to Edith and Momone, played by Marion Cotillard and Sylvie Testud, that they can’t beg in that street, but then he promises to let them go if they sing him the 1920s song Du gris.
Started in 1800 as a dance hall, Bobino saw a lot of famous performers, it was a theater, a music hall, and it was one of the most popular entertaining venues in France in the early 20th century. Although it closed its doors in 1983, after 183 years of work, it managed to host a lot of great shows, including the concerts of Edith Piaf. In 2007, the spot was restored as a cabaret under the same name.
Wander along the historic Rue Ravignan, one of the streets that was filmed in a real Paris setting. Recall a stroll of Edith and Simone and admire great, picturesque architecture on your way. Listen to interesting historical insights from your guide about Napoleon I and who this street was named after. Learn about the filming locations in Prague as you revive images of Paris in the early 20th century.
The famous Pere-Lachaise cemetery is the final stop of the tour based on the story about Edith Piaf. She died on October 10, 1963, at the age of 47, and was buried there. There are always flowers on her grave, as a lot of people come here to remember and pay respect to her. Along with it, get to know the history of the cemetery and other prominent people who were buried there.
