Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

From Z to Missing, and beyond, Greek filmmaker Costa-Gavras has focused his career on history-based dramas that turn on intertwined moral and political dilemmas. The director's tale of a Nazi chemist and a Vatican insider struggling against complicity in the Holocaust is gifted here by a rich, surprisingly mature score by young French composer Armand Amar. Turning on a dynamic mix of pulsing orchestra, spare piano passages (via soloist/score arranger Laurent Levesque, who also wrote "The Bishop's Complaint" cue here), melancholy alto violin solos (by Jean-Paul Minali Bella) and seasoned with everyting from the baroque to Gothic, electronically suffused soundscapes, the composer skillfully evokes the story's historical drama, yet infuses it with a sense of contemporary musical urgency. Especially gratifying is his music for "The Train," a trio of cues where Amar leans on stark, rhythmically propulsive minimalist technique to compelling dramatic effect. --Jerry McCulley

    Esta es una de las mejores bandas sonoras que he escuchado.
    No he visto la película (descubrí la BSO por casualidad), pero como la película esté al mismo nivel que la BSO debe de ser espectacular.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Hauntigly beautiful
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 10, 2004

    While viewing the movie I was gripped by the beautiful music. I was very glad to find the soundtrack available here on Amazon. On it's own the music is, in my view, even more beautiful than in the movie. Of course listening to the music brings back memories of the scenes in the movie, especially the scenes with the train.
    What I really like is the combination of the classical music with some eerie effects like the deep bass tones. Or perhaps that's just how it was mixed, but the overall effect is great.
    Since I received this CD it has hardly left my CD player (usually only to put it in my car CD player)
