Ennio Morricone will hold you captive with Sid Vicious and Harvey Keitel as the actor who personifies twisted NYC intensity gets his first shot as a Bad Lieutenant in the composer’s darkly transfixing precursor to The Untouchables. And I’m happy to write the liner notes for this unsung psychological thriller whose score is now back in print with a powerful new master from Quartet Records, with my booklet featuring a new interview with author and co-screenwriter Hugh Fleetwood as he talks about the journey of his book Order of Death to the screen. And a special thanks to Morricone psychopath Wayne Kramer. Now available, complete with the composer’s unlikely Tchaikovsky tune earworm HERE!
