Did you know?

Yves Montand would have turned 90 years old this month! Born on October 13th, 1921 in Italy, he changed his name from Ivo Livi to Yves Montand for the first time he played on stage in France, at seventeen, in memory of his mother who used to shout at him when he was playing in the streets "Ivo, monta !" (Ivo, come up here!).
