DOWSE Guide to the Movies
by Tony Lee editor of Pigasus Press

Millennium Movies

various - Virgin VTDCDX 276

You might have seen this album advertised of late. It's a 43 track double CD which contains songs, both instrumental and vocal, from a variety of films. It's arguable as to how much of a classic the film is, or indeed some of the songs, but it's a decent collection all the same. I could well imagine the album having a limited audience, though. This is simply because there are songs like Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life, running with Cavatina and Maria. Films covered, also, makes one wonder as to the wide spectrum of styles covered: Breakfast At Tiffany's, The Saint, Bullitt, Monty Python's Life Of Brian, The Mission, Sleepless In Seattle, Star Wars, Forrest Gump, The Wizard Of Oz, Dr. No, and Trainspotting. Unless you've got a good, wide range of appreciation for both your music and your films, then I guess there'll be a lot of unwanted crossover. If you don't mind mixing Trainspotting and The Full Monty, and still enjoy the subtle nuances of Titanic(!), then Bob's your uncle.
