| Description: | Scopitone of Les Gams performing "Oui Les Filles (We Girls)" (French lyrics). CU two young Caucasian women windowshopping, camera on other side of shop window; they enter fashion boutique, begin singing with two other white women (apparently the shop keepers) while rummaging through a pile of colorful clothes on display. Nice MS Les Gams holding up shirts for cam, singing chorus, throwing shirts onto cam. MSs hearty-throated French female quartet singing, wreaking havoc with the clothes display, throwing shirts around, trying on masks & unlikely or outright strange hats and lying casually on the display shelves. MS girl rummaging through pile of clothes during piano solo, one singer popping her precocious head out of pile just in time for last verse. MS of the original two finally leaving with bags, the other two following them out, stopping on stoop, waving a fond goodbye. | |
