SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 2:43 Min.
As Track # 4, this low-key Ennio Morricone instrumental narrates a pivotal character’s demise late in the film. The orchestra, however, isn’t identified.
REVIEW:
Though this track isn’t likely recognizable to non-fans, the poignancy that Ennio Morricone imbues this old school noir-ish instrumental can’t be overstated. Simultaneously conveying a routine evening at a home and a ruthless homicide, its dual purpose is quite effective. While killing a nosy cop comes off as just another ‘day at the office’ for Al Capone’s hitmen, the reverse effect has Kevin Costner’s Eliot Ness grieving over the most personal casualty yet in this ongoing war. Well-played!
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 8 Stars
