Treat for Bill Conti fans! World premiere release of Bill Conti score to intense, dramatic Rick Rosenthal juvenile incarceration tale with Sean Penn, Esai Morales, Ally Sheedy, Reni Santoni. Conti anchors with tender theme in keeping with emotional weight of story but quickly ushers in dramatic tension, vivid urban flavor. Conti wrote considerable action music, mirroring violence in film but, interestingly, most action segments were dropped from final film. These are heard here for the first time ever! Elsewhere, Conti uses strings with emphasis on darker ideas. One cool highlight is austere woodwind chordal sequence identifying Rainford juvenile detention facility where action takes place. Here, clarinets dominate with cold, inhumane feel. Recurring idea plays in contrast to gentler melodic material. Great music! Courtesy Studiocanal, Intrada presents entire score in stereo from composer's own personal two-track tapes, the only known complete copies anywhere. After 57-minute score plays, CD offers 7 minutes of additional alternate and unused source cues. Flipper packaging gives you two distinct covers to choose from. Bill Conti conducts. Intrada Special Collection release available while quantities and interest remain!
