In this episode of PLAY MORRICONE FOR ME, we explore a fun theme called “Vacations Gone Wrong” to an either horrifying or hilarious degree. (I feel like in movies, there are only those two extremes.) This is part one of a two-parter, and the second part will be along shortly. Stick around for selections from Morricone’s FRANTIC, Yared’s THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY, Peake’s THE HILLS HAVE EYES, Revell’s DEAD CALM, and more.
Enjoy!
