George Antheil – That Brennan Girl (1946)

Music from 1946 Soundtrack, featured selections are the "Main Titles & Intro" and "End Titles" (containing sparse sound effects).

George Antheil (1900-1959) composed the original score. Cy Feuer (1911-2006) was the music director of this picture. Ernest Gold (1921-1999) and Nathan Scott (1915-2010) orchestrated Antheil's score and also composed additional music without being credited within the titles.

"That Brennan Girl" is a 1946 melodrama film produced and directed by Alfred Santell (1895-1981). It was reissued in 1951 as a re-edited version under the new title "Tough Girl" without the director's involvement.

At first glance, a movie with the title THAT BRENNAN GIRL (or even TOUGH GIRL) doesn't appear to warrant much attention - but just listen to the above-posted cues! Antheil is putting out tremendous material here.

Just another reason for his film music works to be revived. I would love to hear his score to THE PLAINSMAN in either a new or original recording as well.

Glad you appreciate the segments even if the movie features an uninteresting title. The title of the re-edited version isn't any better.


Here is a final suite of musical sequences from "That Brennan Girl".
Again it contains some dialogue & sound effects.
Some portions within that suite might have been composed by Gold or Scott.
But I don't know for sure.



0:00 Sequence 1
0:39 Sequence 2
0:56 Sequence 3
1:20 Sequence 4
2:19 Sequence 5
3:03 Sequence 6
3:38 Sequence 7
4:17 Sequence 8
5:07 Sequence 9
7:18 Sequence 10
7:32 Sequence 11
9:19 Sequence 12


There is more music in the film. If you want to listen to it watch the whole movie.
