A Republican pollster pointed out that Trump had never talked about immigration before becoming the presidential candidate, so essentially him now hitching himself to the Confederate symbols is because he is convinced that is what he can ride to success. Don’t get me wrong, Trumply is obviously unbelievably racist,…

“Violates Trumps own ethics policy.”

It would be more effective if the Democrats had nominated someone other than Biden.

Last year, I finally sat down and watched The Hateful Eight. Somewhere in the middle of the film, there was a bar of music that made me sit upright, pause the movie, and pull up IMDB. Until that moment, I had not realized that The Untouchables was also scored by Morricone; but one sequence in TH8 recalled the Untouchab…

But to Donald Trump, who is very good at reading the room and then doing the exact opposite of what most people outside of his rabid base want, now is the perfect time to put up even more statues of bad men!

Many great composers have their own distinctive style, but how many had their own distinctive sound? You just say “Morricone” and automatically you hear those uniquely twangy guitars, those high-pitched trumpets, those clangy bells and those raw, haunting voices.

Everyone reaches for the Dollars trilogy for the best spaghetti western score(s). And yes, they are iconic and brilliant - but I love Morricone’s work on Sergio Corbucci’s movie better!

My favorites have all been mentioned already, but one I find myself whistling without even thinking: Cheyenne’s theme from Once Upon a Time in the West. Simple little tune but perfectly describes the character.

Someone else already posted The Ecstasy of Gold, but it’s good enough that I’m posting it again, but a remastered version of just the audio track.

That’s about as bad as Louis and Bebe Barron being ineligible for “Best Original Score” for Forbidden Planet because they weren’t members of the Composers’ Union.

It’s impossible to pick just one, but here are a few that come to mind.

I think his ‘works’ in most cases have to be taken as entire films, as they’re each given cohesive musical styles and structures, with interweaving leitmotifs; he didn’t write ‘numbers’ scores. [well, he probably did, I mean he wrote 500 scores, I’m sure some of them must have been thrown together. But his famous…

Because there is no goddamn way I can pick just one:

Worse than that. They refused to consider him because the American distributors, in producing their massacred, massively-shortened, chronologically-rearranged North American cut, accidentally (or more accurately ‘carelessly’) cut the part of the credits sequence with his name in it. Even though he was properly…

R.I.P. Maestro.

I volunteer as tribute to eat a baby if it means conservatives will take their heads out of their asses.

Cain has since announced that he is receiving treatment for coronavirus but cannot hazard a guess as to where that covid-19 might have come from because he’s been traveling a lot lately in places where cases are spiking.

Which is true—but then why call a white woman pointing a loaded weapon at protestors a Karen, too?

Thank you for pointing out the weaponizing of misogyny in the fight against white supremacy. Oppressed groups are taught to hate and attack each other, while the oppressors float to the top, hanging on to power while looking blameless. How often have you seen memes talking about the percentage of white MEN who voted…

Yeah, just flat out calling them racist does the job just fine. The only word they don’t like. The the fragility is REAL. Always trying to come across strong but shaking inside and letting their emotions go crazy outwardly. It’s not that deep, at least for us. YOU all have been fed a bunch of lies about black folks…
