Special Edition Features

Criterion’s audio restoration reveals the texture of the orchestra—the slap of the double bass, the breathiness of the flute solos. Listen to “You Must Believe in Spring,” a ballad that Legrand would later re-record for Bill Evans. In the context of the film, it’s a simple love song. In the context of Criterion’s archive, it’s a masterclass in leitmotif.
