Si Tu Vois Ma Mère was written in Bb. Probably error in transfer from 33 1/3 to mp3 that raised the pitch a half a tone.

All the best, Gary

I haven't seen Midnight in Paris, but the soundtrack of Sidney Bechet playing it
via youtube sure seems to be in the key of B natural.  Did he play it in that key?

But while on youtube, I found the version with Bob Wilber playing a wonderful
sounding curved soprano sax (at least I think that's what it was)----but with all
due respect to the genius of Bechet, I prefer the Wilber version--it was
played in the key of Bb.
