Sublime! 'Gary Cooper' NINO ROTA from Fellini's 'Amacord' (1973)




One of the most beautiful pieces of incidental music from any film I think. Sorry this doesn't include a clip of the film, which is a visual treat as all Maestro Fellini's mature films are. Nino Rota's other credits included a little American film called "The Godfather".

    Thank you Cassandra. I heard this score on an album before I saw the film---after seeing it I could see how perfectly these two great artists collaborated.

    That's exactly the way I think all exceptional movies should be seen--in a darkened theater--at least the first time. You're welcome Fred.
