The Untouchables Theme (Ennio Morricone)

[alanpeel1981]

Eight people have no idea what they're prepared to do.

[jalind1]

Same Ennio Morricone composer who wrote the music for Sergio Leone's Once Upon A Time In America, with thematic material from that film in Al Capone's theme in this film. Not knowing more, I would guess Brian de Palma was influenced by Sergio Leone and Once Upon A Time In America. Another commonality is Robert de Niro who played Al Capone in de Palma's The Untouchables and was the lead in Leone's Once Upon A Time in America.

best song of ennio

[MegaMIG26]

"He is in the car."

[crdiaz86]

No other but Morricone could write a melodiy like this

[Wittmann73]

a shame Morricone didnt get the Oscar in 1988 for this

[shane13233]

"You wanna know how to get Capone? They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way! And that's how you get Capone."

Such a wonderful movie ànd soundtrack.

[kubrox91]

truly inspiring.

[TalonMercenary]

6 people brought a knife to a gun fight

[TalonMercenary]

yessss been looking for this theme!

[ElTanooGrosso]

Great Movie, I always see this with my dad, he love it to.

[NatKingHarkinian]

"They put one of yours in the hospital, you put one of their's in the morgue. THAT'S the Chicago way!"

-Sean Connery, The Untouchables

[PeppyPower]

@NatKingHarkinian HUGE grin: always one of my all time fave movie quotes. And of course one of the best movies ever with a brilliant score. De Palma/Morricone....are there even ppl like them out there in the filmbusiness anymore? I somehow doubt it...*sigh*

[NatKingHarkinian]

@PeppyPower I dunno. That Howard Shore guy (composer for LOTR) seems to know his stuff.

[thecashmaker1994]

6 people didnt land in the car

[Alucard075]

Sublime! Uno dei miei film preferiti di sempre! ;)

Simple is always Epic.

[snoopeZayko]

Epic as hell . They dont make them like they used to .XD

[Aneba76]

I want to be in side Ennio's head! 

[Crazyman1212]

great movie, compare it to illegal drugs of today....look how prohibiting the drug alcohol made havoc on society in the states for years, giving rise to violence, gangs, and crime...and worst of all death of innocents. yes alcohol can cause problems in society some could argue but prohibiting at what cost, this movie is a perfect example!

[TheDoug1892]

Enthusiasms......

[Vindix007]

6 assholes prefer Justin Bieber.

Hahahahaha!

[Skeiteris19]

@Vindix007

Dont fuckin talk about that fag Bieber, never ever on Morricones music. Really

[dicekpapi18]

They're repealing prohibition. What are you gonna do now?

I think I'l have a drink.

[egdqv13234]

perfect for mafia 2 game theme?

[andrewt1on1]

Robert de Niro was perfect as Al Capone! ...the SLEAZIEST gangster ever! Haha!

[LezlieRed]

That is one amazin' piece of art.

[puvwuv]

This is one of my favorite movies of all time and probably my favorite movie score. the music is amazing AND THE DIRECTION IS EVEN BETTER! hang ebert, this is a five star film

[MrViniluz]

WONDERFUL



[themax316]

@GrayFox929 so moving isn't it...clears up all my sinuses :)

[coppertweed]

I lurve this fil, its so awesomely satisfying to watch, and moving.

[Kidkod84]

the film of the century

[drno62]

Not Morricone's best...

[baltostella]

@drno62 No, I agree, whats you favorite?, mine is probably "Once Upon A Time In America"s theme, or maybe the essence of gold.

[drno62]

@baltostella Spaghetti western trilogy; unlike this film, he really captured the time period in the music.

[RyanStileswliia]

@drno62

That is saying an awful lot about the brilliance of Ennio Moriconne!

[drno62]

@RyanStileswliia Maybe, that's just my opinion.

[RyanStileswliia]

@drno62

I agree its not in his top 5 best scores (Once Upon a Time in the West/America). Still, I like this theme. It captures the heroism of these crime crusaders! Ennio knows exactly how to channel what a director is thinking through his passionate music.

[derdesdemden1234]

Such a great movie and such a great theme song. FANTASTIC!

[MCP2012]

So gloriously, righteously TRIUMPHANT! Hell, yeah!!

[egdqv13234]

0:34 thumbs up for the best part! =')

[FAWLTYWORZELMELDREW]

Wonderful musical score.

What a feeling of triumph of good over evil it makes us feel!

By the way I was routing for Capone in this because it's De Niro.

[trueandlife66]

"chiacchiere e distintivo,solo chiacchiere e distintivo"...dietro le chiacchiere ci sono le idee,la forza,il coraggio, il bene, l'amore, dietro il distintivo la società civile con la forza della Legge e degli Uomini Onesti...non è solo un grande film sorretto da una colonna sonora capolavoro, è un messaggio di non arrendersi, mai, alle ingiustizie, alle prevaricazioni, al crimine...grande esempio di espressione di valori civili e umani...prendete esempio produttori e registi...Vostro T&L

[NapoliNumber1]

ITALIAN PRIDE!!!

[grilletto8]

STRAORDINARIO!!!

[Byt3ful]

I think im gonna "have a drink" after this.

[danielemasseiful]

this music comes from heaven ... morricone is the composer of God ...

[Fredwilson45]

This is what music is.

[KingWilliamMB]

EPIC!!!

[FAWLTYWORZELMELDREW]

I've always wondered if this Film had been quite as good had Bob Hoskins stepped into the role of Al Capone as originally planned instead of Robert De Niro.

[Mmaldera]

Greatest movie theme ever!

[juliewittman]

I liked the movie, sure.. but I watched it over and over for the music and Sean Connery saying "you brought a knife to a gun fight"!! The music brought tears and yes it seemed like American justice, like we all believed as children it could be...real goodness will prevail.

[7Lukibi99Tore7]

The GREATEST movie theme song of all-time! A work of pure genius! Period!

[7Lukibi99Tore7]

The GREATEST movie theme song of all-time! Period!

[AphoticCosmos]

I would pay to see a performance of this and Ennio's other greatest works, alongside those of Goldsmith, Barry, Williams, Poledouris, Zimmer et al

Why aren't there more film score performances!? In the whole of the UK I managed to find one event on the calendar for this year at the Royal Albert Hall. That's pathetic.

[walkabou5]

Fantastic theme, wonderful score, stunning movie.

Ennio is a great man!!!

[mariosheltie]

Simply perfect!!!

[blablaman233]

"i think i'll have a drink" :')

[jannyabb]

This soundtrack was played at AFI ceremony to Robert De Niro when he walked up to the stage to get his life acheivement award. Such a beautiful music.

[ThePunisher1978]

A Masterpiece!

[Thecamillecello]

such a beautiful music and great film too =)

[MachineDragon7]

Great movie and a awesome movie.

[ricepoper]

is there a video of the live performance of this song

[locsman]

simply magnificent movie.

[Tobskybobski1]

This was when cinema was great. These films told stories well and had a good feel to them. A good classically filmed movie with no shoddy CGI and no overly exaggerated camera angles. :')

[rufus99999]

a 1928 Thompson with a Cutts compensator. (The Chicago Typewriter) What a flick !

[stuzzzart]

What a movie ! even more what a sound track ! You gotta love it ??

[FrizAtHome]

Ok, but the intro song is far better

[talamo7]

Antes se curraban mucho las peliculas, ahora te pones a ver una y tienes que quitarla de lo aburrida que es, muchos efectos especiales pero no tiene nada.

[talamo7]

Ya no se hacen peliculas como esta ni bandas sonoras como esta.

[TalonMercenary]

"Never stop fighting until the fight is done"

[FortheSource]

@TalonMercenary

"Here endeth the lesson..."

[yahwanna]

"Never stop fighting till the fight is done." I have to admit that this piece gets me a little misty-eyed as well. It just roars with heroic triumph!! "Here endeth the lesson."

[gruntora]

I think this film is the prime example of the fact that historical inaccuracy has nothing to do with how good a film is. This is one of the least accurate films I've seen and one of the greatest because of it.

[pinz2022]

@gruntora

When the movie came out in 1987 two old books were reprinted in paperback.

I recommend "The Untouchables" by Eliot Ness and "The Last of the Untouchables" by Paul Robsky and Oscar Fraley (for the true story). Oscar Fraley was one of Ness's team and he told the more unvarnished story. According to Fraley, two of the team apparently took Capone's money, betrayed their comrades and vanished from history--something easier to do in those days.

[pinz2022]

@gruntora

The real story was a lot less violent overall, but a lot more fascinating. Once they had cultivated a few reliable intelligence sources, Capone's underground breweries, distilleries and warehouses became easy fixed targets. By the time the IRS bagged Capone himself, his empire was already in ruins. You don't have to put them in jail, just put them out of business. Just as applicable today.

[gruntora]

@pinz2022 Not to mention that there were ten members of the Untouchables, they suffered no casualties and Capone's right-hand man, Frank Nitti, took over his empire (or what was left of it) after he was jailed. In the film there were four Untouchables, two of them died and Nitti got thrown to his death at the climax of the movie.

[FilippoMedas]

unforgettable

[wesnikki]

This is our music. This is the music of America. We may be beaten down but we will get to our feet again.

[sweeetxfire]

Let's do some good!

[nancyfloressantos]

Ennio Morricone always at his best.

[mrmayk]

I think the opening music for this movie was superb. Morricone has done some of the greatest movie scores of the last century and will be remembered well into the present one.

[ilovecronaldo7]

this makes me want to cry :P

[vallergan]

For me this music represents goodness. Good men willing to take a stand against evil, chaos, corruption and destruction. It makes my heart glow.

[RageFeline]

Beautiful song to go greatly with the best movie of all time. It's inspiring, but still a little sad, but it makes me feel safe and happy.

[NinjofGinj]

Brings a knife to a gun fight

[Curbinator]

@NinjofGinj and wins

[hard1970]

Una de las mejores películas de todos los tiempos.

[Azanti]

There are several different versions and recordings of this particular theme so it does not surprise me that it sounds different.

[SONORENSEJR]

eLiOT NeSS is My idoL !

[NKismynextgoal]

Strange, I got this on a Morricone-cd and it sounds smoothier and more bombastic on the CD.

[whiizkid23]

same here but either way morricone is amazing i feel compelled an drawn to this movie since it had good scores...

[Alalena234]

This is such an awesome movie

[nrjelley]

yeh, i nearly cries when Sean was crawling across the floor =( ! lol

[Alalena234]

hahaha nice I watched it with my History class so I just COULDN'T let myself cry in any parts. When the guy with the glasses died really sucked for me. He was my fav

[whiizkid23]

same here i watched it 2 years ago history class i didnt cry but i felt sad when connery was on the floor...

his movies are great

----oh everybody should watch the good the bad the ugly thats a good movie too

[pinz2022]

@whiizkid23

Sorry kid, but the story in the movie and the real story have nothing to do with each other. When the movie came out in 1987 two old books were reprinted in paperback.

I recommend "The Untouchables" by Eliot Ness and "The Last of the Untouchables" by Paul Robsky and Oscar Fraley (for the true story).

[SpeedingStudent]

Yeah, he was one kick-ass accountant.

[DEP717]

@SpeedingStudent One of my favorite cinema moments of all time was when he breaks out the pump action and proceeds to own.

[SpeedingStudent]

@DEP717 Revenge orf the nerd, well before the 1980s films. ha ha!

[horizzont]

It doesn´t matter if you are sad or disheartened, you will feel better listening to this masterpiece!!

[kbunky69]

I agree TCM using this theme as part of their salute to 100 years in movies and when I first heard this piece in it I went crazy trying to find out what it was .. love it , makes me feel great ..

[kingturdthe23rd]

[splungy1]
