This motion picture can be considered the official “sequel” of the five previous movies starring the great Fernandel and Gino Cervi in the roles of Don Camillo and Peppone. The successful French-Italian co-production series is well preserved on DVD: “Don Camillo” by Julien Duvivier (1952), “Il ritorno di Don Camillo” by Julien Duvivier (1953), “Don Camillo e l’onorevole Peppone” by Carmine Gallone (1955), “Don Camillo monsignore ma non troppo” by Carmine Gallone (1961) e “Il compagno Don Camillo” by Luigi Comencini (1965). M° Alessandro Cicognini, one of the biggest names of the Italian Neorealism Film Music was the musical soul for the five movies writing dramatic background orchestral scores dominated by a sweet and pastorale Don Camillo Theme reprised with variations in every movie. Sadly, no record dedicated to Don Camillo with the fabulous movie scores of M°Cicognini has been issued until today (tragically the master tapes of the first three movies are completely lost, while parts of the last two ones have survived in some archives…). The movie was first intended as the sixth in the "Don Camillo" series, starring Fernandel and Gino Cervi. After a few weeks of shooting in July 1970, Fernandel had to leave the set because of failing health. Production was halted but the investors wanted to resume the shooting with a mostly new team. Co-star Gino Cervi and original director Christian-Jaque did not agree to pursue the film without Fernandel (sadly passed away in Paris on February 1971), so the series did not continue. Gastone Moschin was chosen for the role of Don Camillo, while American character actor Lione Stander for the role of Peppone. The direction was assigned to veteran director Mario Camerini, and the score to the great Carlo Rustichelli (M° Cicognini already retired from the Film Scoring scene in 1966). So our CD can be considered as the first officially released record from the original Don Camillo series (apart from the Pino Donaggio Ost – issued on LP Senso Unico SMG 72703 – written for the 1984 theatrical remake starring Terence Hill, precursor of his Tv “Don Matteo”). 24 Tracks - 55 Mins   Product 99 of 183 in category SOUNDTRACKS   Customers who bought this product also purchased THE MAN FROM PLANET X COLOR CLIMAX #232: BESTSELLERS TOMAS MILIAN: THE TOUGH BANDIT, THE ROUGH COP, AND THE FILTHY RAT IN ITALIAN CINEMA [BOOK + CD]   Saturday 21 November, 2009   Xploited Cinema   -  1305 W. 80th St. - Suite 2B / #2 - Cleveland, OH 44102 -  USA Contact Us Copyright © 2003 osCommerce Powered by osCommerce
