A Fistful of Music



ENNIO MORRICONE FILM RETROSPECTIVE

Ennio Morricone’s baroque and humorously Wagnerian scores for Sergio Leone’s spaghetti westerns revolutionised film composition in the 1960s. Almost 50 years and more than 400 films later, after working with directors as diverse as Bertolucci, Malick, Pasolini, De Palma, Tornatore and Carpenter, and collaborators from Yo-Yo Ma to the Pet Shop Boys, the Maestro comes to Adelaide.

To celebrate, Bigpond Adelaide Film Festival and Adelaide Festival present four of Morricone’s most famous and influential films: Leone’s The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (MA 15+) and Once Upon A Time in the West (M), Guiseppe Tornatore’s Oscar-winning Cinema Paradiso (M) and Brian De Palma’s stirring The Untouchables (M). Don’t miss the chance to see—and listen to— these films on the big screen with full cinema sound.
