SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 2:47 Min.
Appearing as Track # 7, this Ennio Morricone instrumental precipitates a fateful showdown between Sean Connery’s Jimmy Malone and an assassination squad – among them, Billy Drago’s Frank Nitti (aka Al Capone’s chief henchman). The orchestra isn’t identified.
REVIEW:
Playing off shades of the main title (“Strength of the Righteous” – Track # 8), Ennio Morricone masterfully sets up one of the film’s most suspenseful sequences. While this quietly sinister track itself isn’t a must-have, it’s ideal for enhancing the film’s sense of operatic-like violence.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 7 Stars
