ENNIO MORRICONE REVIEWS, Part 4-45

THRILLING (1965) Thrilling is an Italian dark comedy anthology film featuring three distinct segments: L’Autostrada del Solo directed by Carlo Lizzani, Il Vittimista directed by Ettore Scola, and Sadik directed by Gian Luigi Polidoro. It tells the loosely inter-linked stories of three men (Alfredo Sordi, Nino Manfredi, and Walter Chari) who unwittingly become involved in violent crimes. Two tracks from Ennio Morricone’s score for Thrilling were released as bonus tracks on the soundtrack for the 1968 film Danger: Diabolik, specifically the one released by Recording Arts Records in 2014 as part of a 2-CD set with the score for For a Few Dollars More. The two tracks are two versions of the same theme, “La Regola del Gioco,” with one being an instrumental and the other one a song. The instrumental is actually pretty cool, a laid back electric guitar riff with a smooth solo trumpet melody, soft rock percussion, strings, and a small group of vocalists intoning the word ‘thrilling’ and cooing wordlessly. The whole thing gives of an air of dispassionate moodiness, one part slightly seedy, one part slightly intoxicating. The song version is performed by vocalist Rita Monico, singing in Italian, who gives the whole thing a smoky-voiced sultriness, breathy and enticing. Track Listing: 1. La Regola del Gioco Instrumental (2:58), 2. La Regola del Gioco Vocal (2:58). Recording Arts RETRO-2X902, 05 minutes 56 seconds.
