GDM Music is glad to present on record for the
first absolute time and its complete form the OST of great M°
Angelo F. Lavagnino from the movie produced in Usa by Universal
Pictures Dark purpose (known in Italy as L'intrigo) directed
by George Marshall and Vittorio Sala starring Rossano Brazzi,
Shirley Jones, George Sanders, Micheline Presle e Giorgia Moll.
The plot is a Thriller, a modern version of the classic Jane
Eyre.
The fans of Film Music now can listen to a dramatic and mysterious
symphonic score where a romantic and sunny main theme emerges
introducing the Italian location of the story.
M° Lavagnino uses this lovely and quiet motif as love theme,
but the mad side of the plot is given by macabre strings and
violent orchestral performances of the strings and brass.
A true jewell of the Italian Silve Age rescued from a limbo.
Digitally remastered and restored fron the original mono master
tapes.
De-luxe eight pages booklet in full colour enriched with archives
stills. |
An Italian count is willing to do almost
anything to win the hand of a beautiful woman in this drama.
The trouble begins after he invites the woman, an art appraiser,
and her partner to his villa on the Italian Riviera to examine
some art treasures.
The count immediately tries to seduce the woman, but she is
not interested in him.
To convince her to marry her, he then tries to tell her that
his crazy wife is really his daughter.
A murder ensues.
