Next Intrada Special Collection - Monsignor?

[Kendal_Ozzel 36]

Upping this thread...

When Monsignor was put on Hulu a while back, I watched it and did this analysis, but I forgot to post it then. So here it is now:

1. Monsignor (Track 7)

2. St. Peter's Basilica (Unreleased 14:54-15:35)

3. Streets of Rome (Track 3 0:00-1:32)

4. Reunion in Italy (Track 2)

5. Appolini's Decision (Track 8 0:00-1:20)

6. A Friend's House (Unreleased 59:56-1:01:37)

7. Forgotten Vows (Track 3 1:32-end)

8. Forbidden Love (Unreleased 1:12:30-1:13:58)

9. Gloria (Track 6)

10. Santoni's Compassion (Track 9 ~1:15-end)†

11. Audience with the Holy Father (Track 5)

12. Varese's Sarabande (Track 8 1:20-end)

13. Flaherty's Return (Unreleased 1:57:46-1:58:19)/Theme from Monsignor (Track 1 0:18-end)†

Not in the film:

*The Meeting in Sicily (Track 4)

*At the Forum (Track 10)

†These are the film edits; for editing the album, you'll wanna leave these tracks intact.

Obviously, I made up extra titles. The times on the unreleased cues refer to their place in the film.

*"Forbidden Love" is very similar to the previous track. It's just another version of the main theme.

*"Gloria" may be edited down a bit in the film; I didn't bother to check much.

*"Santoni's Compassion" sounds dialed in around 1:15, but the unused part of the track matches up with the film.

*On "Varese's Sarabande" (see what I did there?), it sounds like the cue is dialed in after a few seconds.

*"Flaherty's Return" is a nice, brief finale cue that leads into the credits, replacing the very beginning of the track.

Intrada said there was about 3 minutes of music not on the album. Between the four short unreleased bits, I counted about 4 1/3 minutes. If you would like to hear these cues from the film...

"At the Forum" wasn't in the film? That's the best track!

[Kendal_Ozzel 36]

It must have just been done for the album, I guess. I couldn't figure out where it could go in the film.

More likey it was for a scene that was later edited out of the film.

[Thor 9,128]

Great album!

The film is not without merit, though (I too feel this thread treats it unjustly), but obviously has its shortcomings too.

Monsignor is notable for being the only Razzie Award (1983) for which John Williams has been nominated. That a score this good could be considered that bad is worth a listen, in my book.

Coincidentally, the other nominees that year were Butterfly: Ennio Morricone; Death Wish II: Jimmy Page; The Thing: Ennio Morricone; and The Pirate Movie: Kit Hain, which took home the award.

I may have been too vague before—I meant to say that I made recordings the unreleased cues straight from the film. If anyone would like to hear them, you know what to do.

[King Mark 3,801]

ok, I remember St.Peter's Basilica is also a cue I once recorded and wanted on the c.d. For the rest it doesn;t matter too much
