do you REALLY want to spend such an awful amount of money?
YOUR pass ONLY covers the section in FR-so you ALSO have to pay full fare for the sections in Italia and in Espana-the total is probably more as the total reduced fare if you had booked advance. Every country sets its own fares/prices and these only go as far as the borders.

NO! You can use the Elipsos train Barcelona - Milano even with only an IR pass for France! Same applies to Spanish or Italian IR pass.
Also, if you have a French IR pass, thus your country of residence being France you can use the Elipsos with only paying the reservation fee.

And the 50€ are a good investment considering that you travel overnight, the alternative being a one day trip to Nice overnight stay there in a hostel and then continue to Italy the next day.
