Baby It's You (film), released in 1983, directed by John Sayles and starring Rosanna Arquette and Vincent Spano
"Baby, It's You", a Law & Order, Season 8, episode (episode 163, overall), which crossed over with Homicide: Life on the Street
In music
Baby It's You!, a musical featuring pop hits of the 1960s.
"Baby It's You", a song written by Mack David, Barney Williams and Burt Bacharach; recorded by The Shirelles, later covered by the Beatles, Smith and the Carpenters
"Baby It’s You", a song written by Georgie Davis and sung by Chastity at the Dutch Nationaal Songfestival in 2005
This was Sayles' first film for a major Hollywood studio. He based the screenplay on an autobiographical story by Amy Robinson.
Plot
The film is about a romance between an upper middle class Jewish girl named Jill Rosen (Arquette), who is bound for Sarah Lawrence College, and a blue-collar Italian boy nicknamed the Sheik (Spano) in late 1966 New Jersey, who aspires to follow in Frank Sinatra's footsteps.
The movie follows their high school experiences during their romance: Jill's success in high school acting productions, Jill's rebuffing Sheik's sexual advances, Sheik's one-night stand with a sexually active friend of Jill's, and a subsequent suicide attempt by that friend.
Eventually, Sheik is expelled from school, and after an attempted robbery and subsequent pursuit by local police, Sheik goes to Miami, Florida, while Jill subsequently leaves for her first year at Sarah Lawrence in the fall of 1967. At one point in her first year, Jill visits Sheik in Florida, and although she sees clearly how little he has going for him (he has found work in a nightclub washing dishes and, on weekends, lipsynching to Frank Sinatra recordings), she chooses to have sex with him, for their first (and only) time. In the moments before they undress, their conversation turns to his odd nickname, which he had not explained to Jill when they dated in high school. "Sheik" is brand of condoms, he explains--"like Trojans."
Florence Greenberg (September 16, 1913 – November 2, 1995) originally created Tiara Records. The first song recorded and released on the label was "I Met Him On a Sunday", by the Shirelles. Just as the record started to break locally, Greenberg sold the company with the Shirelles' contract to Decca Records for US$4000. With that money, she started a new label in 1959, called Scepter Records, which became one of the leading record labels in the 60s.
It's not the way you smile
That touches my heart
It's not the way you kiss
That tears me apart
Many, many nights go by
I sit alone
At home I cry
Over you
What can I do
Can't help myself
'Cause baby it's you
You should hear what they say about you
They say you've never
Never, never been true
Oh! Oh! Oh!
Doesn't matter what they say
I'm gonna love you any old way
What can I do
When it's true
Don't want nobody
'Cause baby it's you
Many, many, many nights go by
I sit alone
At home I cry
Over you
What can I do
Can't help myself
'Cause baby it's you
