Glebb, the movie FANNY with Leslie Caron you reference WAS the film version of the stage musical--with all the songs cut!

The film version of the musical FANNY adapted Harold Rome's musical score for it's soundtrack.

The film "Fanny" is based on the play with a book by S. N. Berman and Joshua Logan. All of which was based on the Marseilles Trilogy by Marcel Pagnol. This triloogy is comprised of 3 films: Marius, Fanny, Cesar.

Pagnol's 1938 film, La femme du boulanger, is the basis for the musical THE BAKER'S WIFE.

Didn't the movie version of "Irma La Douce" do the same thing (cut out the songs but use the music from the show as background music)?

Yes, sort of. "Irma" on film was a combination of music from the stage musical and an original score by André Previn.
