Secret People (1952)

Secret People

Edit
While most sources (including this website) list the official release date of this film as 1952, the copyright notice on the title card reads 1951. (Note: This isn't unusual. Countless films released in a particular year, bear the date of the year they were shot or ready for release).
Two of the themes included in the musical score of the film, composed by Roberto Gerhard, are the traditional Catalan Christmas carols "La Mare de Déu" and "El cant dels ocells", the last one being popularized earlier by the great violoncellist Pau Casals. The reason is that Roberto Gerhard, born in Valls province of Tarragona (Catalonia), was friends since childhood of Casals, born in El Vendrell province of Tarragona, and a great connoisseur of Catalan popular music. The tune of "La Mare de Déu" was also used by the well-known Catalan musician Xavier Cugat, born in Girona, Catalonia, in his song "My shawl".
