Suite to the often overlooked film The Boys From Brazil . Score by Jerry Goldsmith , starring Gregory Peck Laurence Olivier and James Mason . Produced in 1978 .
Goldsmith's music is smooth, always full of sound, and he doesn't just follow the movie scenes literally. Him and John Williams are the best modern composers. You have to go back to Ben Hur 1959 to beat them.
My girlfriend and I was walking across the Luitpoldhain Park/Arena(Germany....) July 2019, the day before Classic Open Air Nürenberg was being held. Without us, tourists from Norway, as we were, knowing anything about this event, except for the fact that this was historical grounds if you are interested in WW2/SS/Nazis/Aryan Race/etc., when the sound-engineer suddenly put on the soundtrack to T.B.F.B. to check the P.A.-system.....I had goosebumps from my hemorroids to my eyebrowes in less than a sec. I am still not 100% sure if they are all gone. Having watched the movie x amount of times, gotten spellbound by the music, being drawned into the whole atmosphere....it`s just something that "they" does not do anymore. You just cannot put a "Gregory Peck-look-a-like" in front of a greenscreen, add some sampled music from who-ever, construct a fake historic event etc., which is almost what is being done today in 99% of all movies, and believe that the atmosphere, the ambience, the sinistre feeling, will be anywhere NEAR this classical masterpiece of moving pictures and musical notes put together. - "They don`t build`em like they used to, anymore." -
Since i was 8 yo i haved this score more than any other now 50 i lovd it even more. " Your not a prison guard now MADAM' WHAT A MOVIE AND SCORE.... Tony from Edinburgh / Scotland.
It may be blaspemy to utter, but i think Jerry is just abit above John with his ability to nail so many differnt flavors of genres. His overlapping the feel of the late 30's/early 40's into "present" is so errie and is his ability to carry the tension of the story. LOL, he gives waltzes a bad name!
MUY BUENA PELICULA Y MEJOR SOUNDTRACK, GRAN ELENCO DE INTERPRETES Y MUY ADECUADA LA ORQUESTACION DE LA BANDA SONORA DE JERRY GOLDSMITH. GRACIAS. MUY BUENO!!!...
One of my all time favourite Goldsmith scores, waltzes, scherzos, marches, wielded into a dark fantasia that is uniquely the Masters own. Thank you.
This is one of my favourite Jerry Goldsmith film scores..it's so classy and dramatic.
Goosebumps stuff, as expected from the great Maestro. Tremendous score!
One of Mr. Goldsmith’s best. May he RIP.
Classic Goldsmith. Jerry was a true master of the artform of scoring films.
Make no mistake, this is genius.
you're quite welcome.........and thank YOU for letting us hear this glorious music from Jerry Goldsmith.
No me canso de escuchar este precioso vals y su leitmotiv es inspirador ...volveremos!!!

JERRY GOLDSMITH IS WHAT I ALWAYS CONSIDERED TO BE THE KING OF SOUNDTRACK COMPOSERS .
This main them is such a beauitiful waltz for such a dark theme in the movie...still...genius!
Fantastic soundtrack from a master! Argentina beckons when the horns just explode
Roger has got it. The Wagnerian German Peck and the Straussian Vienna Jew Olivier...fighting in the music. And, as Hector said: genius.
