Does anyone know what song is playing during the scene where they are dancing at a club?

4.0 out of 5 stars Classic but not wholesome, December 20, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: The Yards (2000 Film) (Audio CD)

The musics are good indeed, but they do not translate the whole mood of the picture, since the scene music where they are dancing in a nightclub does not play. The music is "Samba de Janeiro", and I suppose it is played by a group called Bellini, but it does not figure in the album.

Howard Shore, who scored David Cronenberg for some time, has created a beautiful and moody score for this little gem of a film. While somber and impressionistic, the film is powerful on a number of fronts as it explores relationships between friends, parents and children, and the dirty business of city politics. Shore has a minimalistic style that is always powerful, and this score can stand alone very well. It has a moody but calming effect, and perfectly matches the shadowy sets of Gray's film without ever being heavy or oppressive.
