5.0 out of 5 stars Hypnoticaly beautiful, begs to be reissued., August 23, 1999

billgalv@aol.com (Galveston, Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Once Upon a Time in America (Audio CD)

This lovely background music for the film was truly magic and each time I view the movie I wish that I had the soundtrack (that was destroyed in a hurricane)... the melody simply carries the theme of the story in a smooth and beautiful manner, taking the audience along as the charaters mature, the story matures and the beauty of the music is not lost in the violence but only becomes more delightful as in the wonderful scene of the dinner in the hotel dining room reserved only for the two, with the violins and the beauty of the ocean viewed through the hotel windows. Breathtaking music. I need a CD.

By A Customer

This review is from: Once Upon a Time in America (Audio CD)

"Once Upon A Time In America" Is one of the most beautiful soundtracks I have ever heard.It conveys all the nostalgia of time flying and of love lost forever. I am very disappointed to know thar it is out of stock. This could never happen.Sincerely, Janet Estill.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hauntingly beautiful., April 20, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Once Upon a Time in America (1984 film) (Audio CD)

I do like the movie, but mostly the flashback scenes when the characters are youngsters. The soundtrack is so beautiful--it really captures all the moods portrayed--the sting of poverty, the longing of lost love, strong friendships, etc. This soundtrack is a rarity in that it's first class from the opening strains to very end. Just sit back and fall in love with Morricone's most perfect and beautiful score.
