For those of you who have been through the France exhibit at the EPCOT Center, there is a movie there about the French countryside etc. There is a prominent theme and I remember the song playing during a protion of the movie as it is seen by a small boat going through the countryside canals.
This song was also in the movie Femme Fatale with Rebbecca Romaijn(SP I dont care).

The song is along the classical music lines. Anyone know this song and help me figure out its name.


As for the Fuck France folks.......I went there when I was  teenager and back then didnt give a shit about poitics or how pussified france is. I was trying to get tail and there was hot tail in the france section of EPCOT.

I bet it's Bolerish. I spent hours a few weeks ago trying to find it.

I'm confused. It doesn't show up on either the movie soundtrack list or the Epcot center list, BUT it is widely listed as from the movie. Having neither been to Epcot nor seen the movie I am at a disadvantage.


Is the movie at least any good?

Well, I'm not sure if that is the song the OP really wants. It is the only classical sounding song I remember from the movie. In fact the scene it was used in is about the only thing I can remember from the movie.  

Truthfully, I thought the movie was ok. Nothing to write home about. It wasn't Casablanca but it wasn't Troll 2.
