The latest CD from Quartet is the first-ever release of Elmer Bernstein's score for CLASS, the 1983 college sex comedy which starred Jacqueline Bisset and Rob Lowe as mother and son and introduced Andrew McCarthy, and which reunited Bernstein with his Great Santini director, Lewis John Carlino.
Caldera is releasing the score for the 1980 film version of Agatha Christie's THE MIRROR CRACK'D, directed by Guy Hamilton (Goldfinger). From the producers of Murder on the Orient Express and Death on the Nile, this Christie adaptation starred Angela Lansbury as Miss Marple, with a supporting cast of Golden Age greats including Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson, Tony Curtis and Kim Novak, plus James Fox and Geraldine Chaplin. The score was composed by Touch of Class Oscar nominee John Cameron, and the mystery is based on a real-life tragedy that befell a Golden Age star. (I've wanted the scores for Class and The Mirror Crack'd for over 40 years, so for me this is a great week to be a soundtrack collector).
The latest release from La-La Land is an expanded edition of Hans Zimmer's score for director Ridley Scott's 1991 surprise hit THELMA & LOUISE, starring Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis. The CD is expected to ship in late May.
Music Box has announced two new releases for French comedies directed by Philippe Clair -- Alan Silvestri's score for 1984's PAR OU T’ES RENTRE… ON T’A PAS VU SORTIR, (aka How Did You Get In? We Didn't See You Leave), starring Jerry Lewis and Connie Neilsen; and Armando Trovajoli's score for 1982's PLUS BEAU QUE MOI TU MEURS.
Having released Benjamin Wallfisch's score for ALIEN: ROMULUS on vinyl, the Mutant label has just announced a CD release of the score, currently expected in late June. They will also be releasing score and song CDs and LPs for Ryan Coogler's just released horror musical blockbuster SINNERS, scored by two-time Oscar winner Ludwig Goransson.
