INTRADA Announces: LAST RITES Composed and Conducted by BRUCE BROUGHTON INTRADA Signature Edition ISE 1037 In the latest Signature Edition release from Intrada, the focus is Bruce Broughton's score to the 1988 film Last Rites. The film is a twisting tale of murder, deception and desire as a New York City priest offers the protection of his church to a young woman on the run from the Mafia. Father Michael is a dedicated, streetwise priest who is also the son of the chief of one of New York’s major Mafia families. Angela is a dancer who was with an important mobster in his hotel room when he was gunned down by a rival faction. Marked for death by what she has seen, she turns to Father Michael for help and protection. The priest is compelled to help Angela, but in so doing he is driven to the ultimate test of faith: the fiery erotic attraction they feel for each other threatens his every basic belief. Tom Beringer (Platoon) and Daphne Zuniga (The Sure Thing) set the screen ablaze in this controversial tale. Bruce Broughton's score for Last Rites includes four primary musical motives. The first (the main theme) indentifies with Michael and the overall arch of the story -- baroque in fashion, the orchestration includes an organ and a women’s choir. A sub-theme, representing Michael’s deep attachment and emotional dependence upon the Madonna for guidance, appears as a countermelody to the main theme. The third theme, first appearing on guitar, is Angela’s theme. And this theme, combined with that of the Madonna, becomes the heart of Dream Lovers, the fourth theme. The end result is a rich and melodic score that is both dramatic and warmly passionate -- a score that marked the beginning of a fruitful collaboration between Broughton and the director Daniel Bellasario (JAG and First Monday). This Intrada Signature Edition is limited to 1000 units.

I have to admit, I was never a big fan of Bruce Broughton; I couldn't really get into The Blue and the Gray and his Americana sound elsewhere is not to my taste. Last Rites, however, is the complete opposite for me. I've thoroughly enjoyed all three of the sample clips that were posted early, and the other samples on the order page are just as great. If I may bring up one thing I noticed - I didn't seem to catch it before, but I'm hearing a click at 0:23 into the sample for track 13, "Nuzo's Death". Hopefully that was merely a compression error in the sample itself and is not present on the CD; but regardless, this score is already ordered. Thanks for bringing out this particular Broughton score for me (and everyone else) to hear! |

Watched the film a couple of nights ago and liked what I heard of the score. I liked ecspecially the Rooftop Chase and The Shower cue. Thanks guys for ending the year with another cool release. |

I really want this one, but times are just to tight for me right now so I had to choose just one and I went with The Entity. This may sound strange, but I hope everyone makes this sell out quickly. Even though I'll miss out, I want Intrada to keep releasing these great Broughton titles. So make this one a winner, and if money permits I'll be able to pick up the next one. Great releases all around Intrada. |
