It's either Hal Douglas or Don LaFontaine. "The Trailer Guys"!

Does anybody know the name of the music in this trailer?

[shaunkelley]

It is the main theme, composed by Jack Nitzche for the movie soundtrack.Not sure if you can get the track on ITunes but the CD is widely available.

In my Historical World Literature, we read a good chunk of the book and watched this version. I have to say the movie is 100 times better than the book because it puts a little juice into a dryly told story.

[shaunkelley]

I agree. The Tyrone Power version couldhave done it a bit more rather than simply copying the book verbatim.

Yes, but only region 1. (I am in the UK and have a multi-region player so it works fine).

"I just want to listen to music by moonlight" That line and moment always stayed with me.

Always loved this movie. Certain movies stay with us over the years....for me, this is one of those.

Great film. Sadly, it was a very underappreciated films. Murray was great. He was perfectly cast. It was always his favorite film and for years he was very upset that the studios never pushed it hard enough--that why its didnt do too well.
