5.0 out of 5 stars Borrow some money and buy it, March 27, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Henry Fool: A Film By Hal Hartley - Original Soundtrack (Audio CD)

Hartley's soundtracks, much like his films, just keep getting better. The score is weirder and darker than previous stuff, but it still has that characteristic feel of his--simple and complex at the same time. And the songs by Ryful are great.

This review is from: Henry Fool: A Film By Hal Hartley - Original Soundtrack (Audio CD)

I haven't seen the film, but i look forward to see it, and i am a fan of some H.H. films, the first one i saw was "The Book of Life" and i have both the DVD and the CD, so then i decided to buy this one, and believe me you won't regret it, is just great all the songs are powerful and beautiful, Ryful and Hal do here such a great and wondeful job, you won't regret buying this CD,and i have my favourite songs, and they are "Henry Fool", "Fay's Wedding", "Gigolo", "Vicky's Deeper Feelings", "he Confession", well i loved the whole soundtrack and i strongly recommend you to buy it. TWO BIG THUMBS WAY UP!

This is my favorite Hal soundtrack. Fay Grim seems to be based on 2 or 3 pieces here but rearranged. The instrumental tracks have a kind of reoccurring theme that for lack of a better description when Steve Kilbey dreams he is Brian Eno 1976. The tracks with vocals have arms and legs of their own and could be different albums semi-quazi shoegazer sometimes gothic. Somehow the soundtrack makes the movie meaningful and have relevance, with the sound turned down appears to be a drunkard, ex-poets attempt to be a wannabee con-man in all the wrong places. I have yet to listen to it too much and would sit through the movie again just for the soundtrack. As side from this , all of Possible Music and Girl From Monday are other necessary Hal soundtracks.
