METELLO (1970) Mauro Bolognini (1922-2001) directed In 1961 the film La Viaccia.
He first worked with Vasco Pratolini as a scriptwriter and then through this
last one he discovered the novel Metello, guessing that the story could become a
movie. Initially he had in mind Albert Finney for a main role, but the actor was
too busy with other films and the plans were shelved. After eight or nine years,
the film was finally made with a cast that, for a budget matter, did include
singer Massimo Ranieri and Ottavia Piccolo. Bolognini made Metello as one of his
most famous films and nobody did realize that it was completed with a limited
budget. He wanted a sentimental movie and was not ashamed to use feelings in the
film. Mauro Bolognini considered Metello and SenilitÃƒ?Ã‚Â¡ as his two
most beloved films. Ennio Morricone did the music for Metello and its not really
clear whether it was their 3rd or 4th collaboration. The movie Lassoluto
naturale is from the same year while Arabella (1967) and Un Bellisimo Novembre
(1968) were earlier collaborations. Until Bologninis death in 2001, Morricone
wrote the music for his 15 movies, of which the last one was La Villa del
Venerdi in 1991. The music for Metello is melodramatic and melodic. The main
theme can also be found on many compilation albums. The beauty of the music lies
here again in the particular orchestration. Whether it is a saloon piano,
mandolin or a brass band, the Maestro knows as always how to be original.
Sijbold Tonkens IL SEGRETO DEL SAHARA aka Secret of the Sahara (1987) Secret of
the Sahara is a TV Mini-Series in seven parts, directed by Alberto Negrin and
starring Ben Kingsley, Michael York, Andie Mac Dowell, David Soul and others.
The film tells the story of an archaeologist who finds an old parchment leading
to a treasure in the Saharan desert. A film with mystery and adventure. Alberto
Negrin directed many TV series and many of them have music by Ennio Morricone
and many of these soundtracks were released but titles like: Ics (2003); Mi
Ricordo Anna Frank (2009); Paolo Borsellino - i 57 Giorni (2012) and LIsola
(2012). The music for Secret of the Sahara is a grand scale quality score, for
large orchestra and choir and rich in beautiful melodies. Sometimes subdued,
sometimes overwhelming. Morricone used also ethnic instruments, as used in the
desert, to come as close as possible to the Sahara sound. Two tracks on the CD,
The Mountain and The Golden Door, were conducted by Franco Ferrara. Morricone
wrote these tracks for the John Huston film The Bible in 1964 and he reused
these same tracks to ultimately bring them to the screen. Enjoy the score. It is
a masterpiece. Sijbold Tonkens
