DOWSE Guide to the Movies

Dr. Strangelove: Music From The Films Of Kubrick

various, Silvascreen FILMCD 303

Obviously released on the wake of Kubrick's recent death, but no matter, better late than never I always say. A very eclectic collection of material, gathered from films such as The Shining, Spartacus, A Clockwork Orange, Dr. Strangelove (obviously), Full Metal Jacket, and Lolita. Not only is the range of music quite effective, but I had forgotten (and didn't know in some cases) that Kubrick had been the man behind the above films. The suite of early Kubrick films is quite an eye opener, containing such films as Day Of The Flight, Fear And Desire, Killer's Kiss and The Killing. The sleevenotes are a very interesting read, not only containing trivia about the music, but loads about each film. The addition of 2001: A Space Odyssey is a nice, welcome addition, although out of context, we've all heard 'Also Sprach...' or you should have. Not a bad refresher.
