Yves Montand, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, 1960s to 1980s.
Place de Gaulle, beneath the plane trees, a few metres from the Colombe d’Or. Not a stage. Not a film set. A pétanque court, and quite possibly his natural habitat. Lino Ventura and Georges Géret were among the regulars. Montand even sponsored the local children’s tournament.

But before Yves Montand, there was Ivo Livi.

Born in Monsummano, Tuscany, on October 13, 1921, the youngest of three. In 1923 his antifascist family left Mussolini’s Italy for Marseille. Ivo quit school early, took whatever jobs came along and found his way into music hall. The new name, so the story goes, was his mother calling him upstairs: “Ivo, monta!”

Paris, 1944. Édith Piaf spotted him at the Moulin Rouge, took him under her wing and, inevitably, became his lover. The romance ended. The career did not. In 1946, Les Portes de la nuit gave him Les feuilles mortes by Prévert and Kosma. He would carry that song for the rest of his life. The world learned it as Autumn Leaves.

August 1949, the Colombe d’Or. Simone Signoret, then married to someone else. Montand, in town for a show in Nice. On December 22, 1951 they wed at the village town hall, with Prévert as a witness. The marriage outlasted fame, politics and, yes, Marilyn Monroe. Simone died in 1985. Montand kept coming back to Saint-Paul.

Which brings us back to the square. One of the great performers of the century, a man who could hold a room without seeming to move, treating a metal ball on dusty ground as a matter of national importance.

He died in November 1991, the day after a heart attack, having just wrapped Beineix’s IP5. His character in the film dies the same way. Cinema has a cruel sense of timing.

Choosing photos of Montand is always hard for me. With some Kings, an uncool picture is a purely theoretical concept.

Ivo Livi was born 105 years ago today.
And it still looks like he has the next throw. 👑
