A CERTAIN SMILE (A CERTAIN SMILE, 1958)

One of the most popular song came from the movie A Certain Smile. It's about a young woman (Christine Carère) who falls in love with his philandering uncle Luc played by Rossano Brazzi who is married to a beautiful Francoise played by Joan Fontaine. It's based on the novel by Françoise Sagan. The theme was nominated in the Oscars for best original song.


A CERTAIN SMILE
sung by: Johnny Mathis

A certain smile
A certain face
Can lead an unsuspecting heart on a merry chase

A fleeting glance
Can say so many lovely things
Suddenly you’ll know why my heart sings
You love awhile

And when love goes
You try to hide the tears inside
With a cheerful pose

But in the hush of night
Exactly like a bittersweet refrain
Comes that certain smile to haunt your heart again

But in the hush of night
Exactly like a bittersweet refrain
Comes that certain smile to haunt your heart again
