    Have to say Michael Small is my favorite '70s composer. A master of the understated film score.

    Chilling....as a kid I used to play Dad's analogue reel-to-reel recordings of his film scores just to freak myself out. To this day I still get shivers when I hear his music. What also scared the heck out of me was his score to the movie Klute with Donald Sutherland and Jane Fonda! Thank you for posting this tinfoil unicorn. We hoped to get a CD of Michael Small's greatest movie score hits out but this is not possible as the film companies actually legally own the copyright to his music.

      Yeah, I watched 'The Parallax View' only recently. The soundtrack captivated me immediately. Haunting and chilling indeed, just like 'Klute's', which I saw last year.

      hm..if u haven't already check out "Homecomming" I think its on amazon prime, they have taken scores from old movies to create the mood of films from that era. u probably wont get the same chills but its a great way to enjoy wonderful scores that otherwise might be forgotten trough time.

    What is the title of the march at the end credits?

    • @360decrees6
      @360decrees6 6 років тому +5

      It's an arrangement for marching band of the main theme (opening credits music) of the film. The final assassination in the film occurred at the rehearsal for the assembly where the victim, a senator, would give a speech. It included a local school band. The composer probably wanted to juxtapose the oblivious innocence of everyday life of the average person with the sinister unsuspected intrigues that in fact affect his life.

    *Sigh* It USED to be "sci-fi" or "thriller fiction"... Now, it's "Chumps-Wake-Up-To-Being-Years-Behind- Awareness-Of-Actual-State-of-the-Art Tech and Gear (hardware/software), and Evil NWO-Rotters's Agenda. Ouch. "The Parallax View" is a very perceptive film (as is "Iron Man 3", btw), and not to be missed.

      3 QUESTIONS 911 TRUTHERS DON'T WANT YOU TO ASK THEM:
      Why did Dr. Steven Jones circumvent the peer review process by not showing his nanothermite paper to the chief editor and printing it without her approval?
      Why won't Kevin Ryan allow ANY of his precious dust samples to be tested by an independent laboratory?
      Why won't Niels Harrit, Steven Jones, or Kevin Ryan refute the recent truth seeking professional scientific study of the WTC dust performed by Dr. James Millette?

      If the ever so powerful govt. could commit and cover up 911, why did they have to destroy a building (WTC 7) just to destroy some documents?
      Couldn't the govt. just haul the documents away and dump them into the ocean?
      And do you really believe that those were the only copies?
