Talk:The Way We Were (song)

Fame edit

The song (or an instrumental version of it) is present in the 1980 movie Fame, during the audition of "Doris Finsecker" in the movie. I remember she was very emotional and was saying the lyrics almost like a poetry, while in the background her mother was starting to cry. I don't think it's enough to list it in "Other versions" section but someone may be interested about it. Mariushm (talk) 23:58, 20 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
