but not with a resistance femme du guerre. Loosely based on a true story. His trip to the border is a great true and was likely very tense and fearful much of the time with some comic moments to relieve the intensity.

For those interested, Django's life and times in Thonon-les-Bains is well-documented in a long article published some years ago in a regional history journal. I will try to put together a sort of translation of this but it will take time as it's not easy French. Or maybe one of our francophone members wants to take this on...
How disapointed I am! Teddy Dupont is an impostor: he cant make the difference between two different Django recordings! A myth has fallen!
I quite like having once been a myth.
The other big failing of the film which destroys any semblence of authenticity is that it is in colour. All the photos from 1943 clearly show Django was only ever in black and white.
Best of all, it seems to me that the (weak) sound of the imitation of Django's solos is not perfectly synchronized with the image of the moving fingers at least in the footage I have seen

Indeed it was. I did not think anyone would notice. Here is the original. Unlike the 1947 version, this solo is never copied yet I think it is great:-

I am not computer literate but between my wife and I we could help a little.
Regarding the article, you can read it here

I could help to translate some parts if you want.
