5.0 out of 5 stars MODERN NOIR / DEEPLY HITCHCOCKIAN, May 2, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Femme Fatale (Audio CD)
Masterful score to one of the best films of 2003. Very European flavor which appeals to a more cultured taste, (and not so much the mainstream.) The music is daring and passionate with shades of Bernard Herrmann's Vertigo and Marnie. THERE IS A BETTER AND LESS EXPENSIVE VERSION AVAILABLE FROM THE FRENCH AMAZON.COM. (The film was much more appreciated overseas.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Sakamoto - Femme Fatale, May 6, 2003
By germ (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Femme Fatale (Audio CD)
This is a sensual score which the talented composer has written so exclusively for the film. I never find Bolero an attractive piece of music; except in '10'; where I'd found it quite funny as Dudley Moore and Bo Derek's flirting music.
Mr.Sakamoto has written a variation to Bolero on this soundtrack -titled Bolerish.He has turned the most boring tune on earth into a seductive & melodic piece. The most basic, yet the most stylish tune is LOST THEME- Piano Version. Somehow I wish there were more variation to this piece in the film. You don't have to watch the movie first to like this album. However, you would definitely want to own a copy of this rare CD if you happen to have enjoyed watching this extremely well composed film by Brian de Palma.
Ryuichi Sakamoto, Brian de Palma and Stunning Mrs.Rebecca Romijn-Stamos [femme fatale herself] make quite a team to STEAL your heart and soul.Quite breath taking.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ryuichi Sakamoto - Femme Fatale, May 7, 2003
By germ (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Femme Fatale (Audio CD)
Mr.Sakamoto has always been type-casted to write oriental-related movie scores. Well, this one is definitely not one of them, thank God. This film score is sensitive, sensuous and stunning. The movie itself has been under-rated by many. Seeing is believing; watch it and you'll find out how each note fits into each frame of Brian de Palma's new film.A Collector's Item without a doubt!

Not the best OST Ryuichi did, but the bolerish (a personnal vision of Ravel's bolero) is interesting and sounds really good (quite live with a classical orchestra). Read more
