America's music is it's weakest feature. Other than that, it's a masterpiece.

Seconded. I really like some of the music (Cockeye's Theme), but the score isn't particularly memorable like Morricone's other stuff. I still think the score is great, and the movie is one of the best.

I love the music of OUATIA.

But DYS's sountrack is the greatest Morricone-Leone collaboration. I love the freakin music in DYS.

all that speakeasy filler music is crap. Morricone could do ten times better.

A-HA! I think I've got it! Firecracker's ex-girlfriends all turned him into the law on certain occasions. Am I right?

if you would have gone with

"the both of them are just plain wastes of human tissue"

then you would have been correct.

I can only fervently disagree, as OUATIA is right up there with "Doctor Zhivago" as my favorite film score ever.  Yes, even the allegedly terrible Speakeasy music.  ::)

But I apologize for offending you Firecracker.  My tongue was planted firmly in cheek, but that didn't come across, so I'm sorry.

Hey...easy on FC. Whatever he does in the privacy of his bedroom, explosives and all, is none of our business! ;D ;D
