3.0 out of 5 stars Not quite a bargin, October 12, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Matewan: A Film Written And Directed By John Sayles - Original Soundtrack (Audio CD)

A good selection of tunes from a great movie. The cuts of Hazel Dickens singing Fire in the Hole and Hills of Galilee are fabulous. Unfortunately, the cd is not much of a bargin in terms of what you get. Out of the 21 cuts 9 are less a minute long and another 9 are between one and two minutes long, tending towards the shorter. Many are tunes and songs that are worthy of more extended renditions. Unlike many soundtracks this one seems true to the film: what you hear in the film is only what you get on the cd. So, a little disappointing.
