French director François Ozon's international hit manages to spoof both convoluted film whodunits and overblown Hollywood musicals: Agatha Christie as envisioned by Baz Luhrmann. One of the romp's chief joys is having eight of modern French cinema's most accomplished actresses take their turns in elaborately staged song and dance numbers, performances that compose this soundtrack's first half. Those showcases range from Ludivine Sagnier's loopy, '60s a-go-go take on "Papa T'es Plus dans L'Coup" through Fanny Ardant's breezy Parisian jazz, Isabelle Huppert's world-weary "Message Personnel," and Catherine Deneuve's tango-tinged "Toi Jamais." Coupled with Krishna Levy's masterfully earnest orchestral score (which offers a few fond nods to such '40s Bernard Herrmann romantic classics as Jane Eyre), the film's campy delights are crucially delivered deadpan and with nary a knowing wink, a tack that ensures its musical triumph--tongue firmly in cheek, or otherwise. --Jerry McCulley

Album Description

8 Women is the story of 8 women trapped in the house of a murdered man. One of the women is the culprit, and suspicious and mistrust run wild as they try to outwit and out maneuver one another. This French hit by filmmaker Francois Ozon has wowed audiences across Europe and the U.S. Academy Award winner Catherine Deneuve leads the star-studded cast, which boasts the best-known and most talented women of French cinema. Eight songs off the soundtrack feature the vocal talents of each of these eight actresses. The score is by Krishna Levy. Rhino. 2002.

Nice songs, and especially for students of French like myself. Good for enriching the vocabulary and music to the ears. The movie 8 femmes is a must see-too.

A mile stone album.......2004-06-21

A mile stone album
Reviewer: Rodney Gavin Bullock from Winchester, Hampshire United Kingdom
This is a key album in the output of this great chanteuse. Her early songs were straightforward in meaning, though emotionally often very powerful. 'Message Personnel' (1973) represents a big advance in sophistication and the words have become more ambiguous and more subtle. Even if you have the words on paper, school boy French and a large dictionary will often not get you very far. Never mind, more than any other singer I know, she conveys the emotions purely with her uniquely beautiful voice, a voice laden with tenderness, humanity and intelligence.
The songs on this disc are all of the highest quality, with a mixture of the lyrical and more rhythmic. 'Premiere recontre' is by Michel Berger and his collaboration on this album seems to suit Françoise' style down to the ground. The orchestration is inventive and adds considerably to the impact of the songs. I will mention two songs in a little more detail. 'Beuceuse' (Cradle Song) is about a woman watching her sleeping lover - his breathing, sighs and stillness. She imagines his dreams. But at the end she recognises that things will be the same tomorrow, implying things are not too good when he is awake. This is set to music of touching tenderness and simplicity. The masterpiece on the disc is the last, 'Message Personnel'(Hardy, Berger). In my view it is one of the greatest love songs of all time, with an almost overwhelming emotional impact. It starts with her talking to her lover, apparently on the telephone but is she? Is it in her head? She wants to say loving things to him but she cannot. Why? What has happened? We do not know. The talking ends and she sings gently, building to an impassioned climax. I would buy the CD for this alone.

MESSAGE PERSONNEL.......2003-04-13

Message personnel is a truly beautiful albumn. It captures all the hauntingly beautiful, romantic, agonising heartbreak, of those who are in love, spiralling, deeply, out of control... It is hauntingly, beautifully sad. The title track, Message Personnel, seems to be based on someone who is deeply in love with someone, yet cannot bring themselves to contact them. I think it was based around a film.
Berceuse, a lullabye for lovers together. Many more tracks, one about a lovely garden, one track comes better than another, it simply blew me away. My version is on vinyl, and I play it often.
