A genius praised
An intimate insight into a musical genius by a master filmmaker. Tornatore has a complete understanding of Morricone's insights and sensitivities and vice versa. So it was natural for him to make a full-length film about the maestro that gave a new depth to film scoring. Watch and be astounded by Ennio's ability to embrace all styles of music, and yet retain his own identity. We have lost a unique voice.

A magnificent tribute
Brought tears to my eyes - a fitting tribute to a musical genius by one of our great film makers. A must see documentary especially if you are already a Morricone fan.
