FEDORA
Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Music Composed and Conducted by Miklós Rózsa
Here’s a Varèse Encore release of another very early title from our CD Club. Miklós Rózsa’s luminous Fedora was actually just the second title released from the original Varèse CD Club, way back in 1989! It’s been out of print, expensive and hard to get ever since. But now the timing is perfect. The film itself was just released on Blu-ray a few weeks ago, allowing a new generation to discover it. We are so excited about making this late-Rózsa classic available once again.
As a special bonus, this Encore Edition also retains the Crisis Guitar Suite, performed by Daryl Denning.
In Fedora (1978), Billy Wilder approaches Hollywood stardom in the same fashion as he did in Sunset Boulevard--with cynicism, regret, understanding, and awe. Fedora (Marthe Keller) is film's most intriguing movie queen. Rumored to be well into her sixties, the actress has remained a starlet for over four decades--retaining youth and radiance despite her advancing years. The mystery behind her numinous persona has never ceased to captivate audiences. Even now, as she lives in seclusion on the beautiful Greek island of Corfu, the public buzzes for her to return to the screen. When producer Barry Detweiler (William Holden) travels to Corfu, staking his faltering career on Fedora's return, he discovers the actress's tragic secret. Fedora's eternal loveliness may not be the result of defying her age, but of concealing her youth.

I'm always fascinated by folks who go into stores, hold up an item for sale and then proclaim loudly to the other bystanders...I'M NOT BUYING THIS...and then walk out.

Never mind, I decided to edit my comment. I don't want to argue with people who are only interested in raining on other people's happiness 
If a release isn't for you, great. Why tie up the thread with pass comments is beyond me!

To be fair, this is a forum for comment/debate - not a store!
Clean up on aisle three......

But if you was with a bunch of friends in a record store (if you could find one!) it's something you might say. Looks like a good batch, nothing there for me, but then I'm a hard sell these days. I have most of what I want.

I wonder if this will include Christopher Palmer's excellent and indispensable track by track LP liner notes which were not included with Varese's previous CD?

I don't have the previous release, so I am going to pick this up. Does this cancel out RM Eastman's post?
An anecdotal negative is in no way market research, just reflects someone who needs to post on every one of these new release announcements that they don't want any of these releases. Which is wasting all of our time. (Like mine right now answering it for gosh sakes!)
Anyway, have to say that the clips are providing some interesting new variations in how Rozsa scored even so late in his career. Lovely release. Hope it sells out soon. Now THAT'S market research!
