Music reviews of The Postman (Il Postino): Music From The Miramax Motion Picture Soundtrack (1994 Film)
Music Review: Wonderful Music, Distracting Stars
Rating: 4 Stars
I really, really, really like this music. I'm not sure if I emphasized that enough. This is a beautiful melancholy (and at the same time joyful) and textured mix of regional folk music and modern movie theme aesthetics. It fits perfectly with the gorgeous movie and it's Neruda-inspired romanticism. But it transcends the movie and becomes universal (see new symphonic arrangements appearing on the orchastra scene).However, I really, really, really don't like the first half of the CD. In fact, I made a copy of the CD without the Readings From The Stars, so it wouldn't distract so. Perhaps this was added by Miramax so it would be more sellable? Would the reading of Neruda's poems be included if they didn't get the stars to read them? I highly doubt it. I'm sure it was Lew Wasserman's (or some other top brass at the studio) idea, who then pulled his strings. And now he smiles every time a Julia Roberts fan finds Il Postino. It's great cross-marketing, and makes for bad art.
This would get 10 stars from me on the strength of Luis Bacalov's stirring music, but I had to do something about all those damn celebrities.
