Morricone

06.07.2020
A great man of film history has passed away - Ennio Morricone.

A man who has musically translated the understanding of content & dramaturgy of a script like no other.
A man who was always where he should be.
A man who never sold himself short.
A man who never sought the limelight.
A man who made himself immortal.

I have always respected and loved this man for what he has accomplished - for what he is.
For me, someone who gave me reasons in my youth to watch films that I would have rated as mediocre at best without his musical accompaniment. Reasons to watch films multiple times. Reasons to ignite a love for film, as few before and after him could.

From classic westerns to great horror and thriller classics to modern films. Rarely has there been someone who covered such a wide spectrum. Suitable for every occasion, for every theme.

Always well-dressed, always well-groomed, always professional.

If a fragrance could represent the nature and essence of a person, Terre d'Hermès Parfum would be my choice for Mr. Morricone.

Rest in peace.

I think I understand exactly what he means and wants to express. It's bold to write such an emotional review in the realm of analysts, where you can hardly grasp a word with pure logic. That's why it deserves a trophy.

I feel the same way - the first thing that came to my mind was Blondie. Great comment!

I get the Ennio Morricone reference, but I'm not quite sure how you feel about the scent. That's a shame.

You got me. I'm not a huge fan of the two icons mentioned, but I can totally understand your comparisons.

That's of course no problem at all.
I don't mean to have written some profound text that you need to read between the lines, but I stand by every one of those lines and every description I made in the comment about Morricone for the TdH as well.
