Hans Zimmer Matchstick Men (CD)

Description: Further DetailsTitle: Matchstick MenCondition: NewDescription: EDITORIAL REVIEWS AMAZON Ridley Scott's quirky tale of a smalltime con-artist coming to terms with his rediscovered daughter sprawls across landscapes both internal and external, from the twitchy neuroses of Nicolas Cage's character Roy to the kitschy San Fernando Valley furnishings and architecture he insulates them with. Hans Zimmer's soundtrack deftly colors them both with retro-quirky, infectious charm, a welcome left turn from the moody dramaturgy that has been so often demanded of the composer. Roy's living-in-the-past ethos inspires some smart catalog choices, from Bobby Darin's breezy take on "The Good Life" and George Formby's ukulele romp "Leanin' On a Lamp Post" to prime 60's cuts by Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass and Mantovani's cocktail lounge staple, "Swedish Rhapsody." Zimmer's jazz-exotica dominated score bobs and weaves its way merrily through those dizzy inspirations, throwing in a little accordion seasoning and several healthy dollops of Nino Rota's La Dolce Vita theme in the bargain, before throwing us back headlong into the jarring rhythms of the 21st century's digital cacophony. A fresh, loopy change of pace from one Hollywood's most successful -- if too often pigeonholed -- composers. -- Jerry McCulleyFormat: CDGenre: SoundtracksArtist: Hans ZimmerNo Of Discs: 1Record Label: Varese SarabandeLanguage: EnglishEAN: 0030206651522Type: Alle afdelingen Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
