THE 85TH BIRTHDAY OF ENNIO MORRICONE QUEIMADA, originally - TopicsExpress



          

THE 85TH BIRTHDAY OF ENNIO MORRICONE QUEIMADA, originally QUEMADA(aka BURN), changed its spanish name to the portuguese one, because general Franco was threatening UNITED ARTISTS with a new ban of all their films in Spain, like it happened with COLUMBIA after Fred Zinnemanns BEHOLD A PALE HORSE. The producer Alberto Grimaldi and the director Gillo Pontecorvo changed the nationality of the conquerors, remaining Marlon Brando as the british Sir William Walker. United Artists considered the movie politically not adequated for US audiences and they made a new editing, cutting several scenes and changing the dialogues. This mutitlated US cut was the english version. These images are from the uncut italian restored version. Ennio Morricone composed one of his most impressive soundtracks, n the main artery of majestic movie themes. Many of the tracks are literally, a magic carpet ride, back to a historical and tragic era of African slavery and colonialism periods in the new world.
