LongTallJodie 55 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 A Goldsmith noir that no one has ever actually heard before? Yes PLEASE. I was always fascinated with this movie as a kid and I'm not sure I even WATCHED it. I just dug the aesthetics. Yavar Moradi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Brundlefly 2,327 Posted June 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2021 World premiere release of unused Jerry Goldsmith score for Joe Pesci gangster tale! Universal Pictures presents a Robert Zemeckis production. Howard Franklin scripts and directs, Joe Pesci, Barbara Hershey, Stanley Tucci, Jerry Adler star. Leon “Bernzy” Bernstein shoots photos… crime photos. It’s a living. As the one sheet tagline states: “No matter what he was shooting, The Great Bernzini never took sides, he only took pictures… Except once.” First a murder suspect, then cleared and released, next into romance, finally in the middle of a mob war. Jerry Goldsmith fashioned a score both appropriate to the period setting and tinged with drama. It’s a haunting mood edged in darkness, but just not what director Howard Franklin was looking for. Ultimately Mark Isham stepped in to score the final picture. Not one to let a gorgeous yet bittersweet tune go to waste, Goldsmith drew inspiration for much of his unused The Public Eye score from an idea he initially scored for an earlier boxing picture that, ironically, also went unused. From the onset, this smoky jazz-inflected theme in C minor (with rich cadences in F major) features strings above and prominent bass below mournfully melodic clarinet. Piano soon follows with a new idea that expands Goldsmith’s harmonic vocabulary further. Though the theme and corresponding mood recur often, Goldsmith has several other things to say: A rising two-note figure consisting of a minor second steadily plays underneath the theme during “Morning Call”, new orchestral and synthesizer colors embellish the rising two-note figure and initial theme during “The Body”, dark and complex lower string harmonies infuse “Someone To Trust”, high violin harmonics color “After Hours” plus several other ideas. As is customary with this composer in his later career, what initially seems open and sparse begins to reveal much within its transparent layers. The score is written for full strings plus solo bass, percussion, keyboards (both piano and synthesizer), harp, oboe, flute and that haunting ever-present clarinet. Courtesy of Universal Pictures, the original digital stereo session mixes appear in clean, crisp sound. This Intrada premiere presentation features the complete score as Goldsmith wrote and recorded it in the intended picture sequence, all engineered by veteran Mike Ross-Trevor at Whitfield Recording Studios in London during April 1992. A terrific long-lost gem is finally unearthed and heard for the very first time! Jerry Goldsmith composes, conducts. Intrada Special Collection CD available while quantities and interest remain! 01.

Disco Stu 15,475 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 The track 10 sample reminds me of some of the villain material from Dennis the Menace, which was the year after this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have the Intrada LSO Rio Conchos / The Artist Who Did Not Want to Paint in any form yet, believe me it'll be worth the wait...

Just little tweaks Doug Fake made largely for himself, the most noticeable being some volume adjustments between individual cues that make up The Artist Who Did Not Want to Paint.

Jay 32,095 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I listened to this score last week finally. I liked it a lot! It immediately creates a cool mood and stays there the whole time. The only problem is a weak narrative drive. It just kind of goes for a while then stops, not clear beginning / middle / end to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taikomochi 905 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 My impression of it after one pass through was that it’s pretty much just the melody and style of the end credits from “The Vanishing” repeated over and over for a whole score (presumably similar to how he reused the rejected Alien Nation cue for The Russia House?). It’s not unpleasant, but also not especially memorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
