Free Music Notes for A Good Year
Free Music Review: John Thaw, Russell Crowe, both great Peter Mayle characters
Hit: 5 Stars
I love the Peter Mayle stories. I love the concept, the beautiful old French manor house, the vineyards, and the interesting French characters. I spent a year and a half in France in the US Army and I loved every minute of it. It was MOST interesting and exciting and I especially loved the countryside and the quaint, ubiquitous French villages and especially the tremendous historical treasury that fills the entire country. Peter Mayle, in his biographical work, "A Year in Provence" used John Thaw to portray himself during the year it took to restore his wonderful old chateau in Provence. But in this movie, "A Good Year", a fictional story decorates the same chateau (I believe it is) and region that has several love stories combined. First, there is Russell Crowes' love for himself (very nacissistic) and his growth of character which leads to him falling in love with a charming French girl and his long lost niece all the while his love grows for the legacy his late uncle has left him...the chateau and the environs. A very satisfying movie visually and emotionally and I loved every moment of it! I recommend highly, especially for Peter Mayle and Russell Crowe fans!
A Good Year Poster
In a distinct break from their muscular triumph Gladiator, Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott teamed up again to bring Peter Mayle's sunny Provençal romance to the screen, a change of milieu that's spawned an equally warm, often sentimentally tinged soundtrack and score. Using a trio of pop songs by the great Harry Nilsson (including the joyous demo of Nilsson Schmilsson's "Gotta Get Up") as an axis that's as effusive as it is unlikely, this is a collection that romps through Franco-pop nuggets variously contemporary (Makali's elegant "Il Faut du Temps..."), vintage (Charles Trenet's "Je Chante," Jean Sablon's "J'Attendrai," Tino Rossi's "Le Chant du Guardian"), and downright loopy (Richard Anthony's French redux of "Yellow Polka-Dot Bikini"), making room for Patti Page, Josephine Baker, and Delaney & Bonnie along its merry way. Also included are three cues from newcomer Marc Streitenfeld's underscore, a nimble exercise in instrumental post-modernism whose electronica/folk/neoclassical mélange is as eclectic as the song choices, yet characterized by subtlety and grace. --Jerry McCulleyPop Music CDs
