CD REVIEW - MILANO ODIA: LA POLIZIA NON PUO' SPARARE + NEWS FROM SCREEN ARCHIVES ENTERTAINMENT


Milano Odia: La Polizia Non Puo' Sparare
Music by Ennio Morricone
Digitmovies CDDM 094 (Italy)
12 Tracks 47:06 mins

This second recent Morricone release is for the 1974 police thriller Milano Odia: La Polizia Non Puo' Sparare, which concerns a dangerous criminal, played in typically crazed fashion by Tomas Milian.
Lengthy selections from Morricone's score have previously been issued, but this expanded release features 7 new tracks, largely variations on the main themes, of which there are three. The first, a strident, beat-driven theme, with a "tick-tocking" section, features strongly throughout; the second, a somewhat sleazy sax theme, with a brassy extension; and the third, another achingly sad Morricone melody. Around these recurring themes, the composer weaves typically dissonant material, sometimes tense and suspenseful, at others perfectly representing the criminal's unhinged nature.
Accompanying the disc is the usual colourful booklet, with stills and artwork from the film, together with introductory notes by Claudio Fuiano and Pierluigi Valentini.
