Soundtrack Q & A
Q: Does this soundtrack have the song that Marlon Brando and Jean Simmons characters waltz to, right after Deiree comes out of Josephine's room, and Napoleon tries to kiss Desiree and he wants her to teach him how to waltz for his new soon-to-be wife? (from sand bag in America)
A: NOT really, but the Main Title from the film IS THAT WALTZ! But there is a scene later in the film when Jean and Marlon WALTZ.... and he is saying "One Two Three......... One Two Three!" To get her mad, but to no avail. The waltz music is being used a few times during the film... The waltz was composed by Alfred Newman, the soundtrack itself was composed by Alex North (thanks to Christian Simmons, Berlin, Germanyadd more info
