Antonioni's classic Zabriskie Point,
which famously enlisted the help of Pink Floyd to provide music for the
score, is receiving its long-awaited release on DVD this month... but
with a slight snag.
 |
Antonioni's classic film
Zabriskie Point |
Stories from the recording
sessions are legendary, with the band indulging in fine food and wines,
before strolling down to the studios, producing music that was
described by Antonioni as "beautiful...but too sad!"
Some excellent music was produced
during the sessions, and many of the takes have since been released on
an expanded edition of the soundtrack album. There are also some
unofficial releases with further takes.
In the end, the most memorable
track in the film is "Come In Number 51, Your Time Is Up" - a version
of Careful With That Axe Eugene that is used to great effect at the
explosive finale to the film.
For those who want to take
(another) look at the film, it is being released in Italy on January
27th. It will be sold with that week's edition of L'Espresso, an
Italian weekly magazine. This link
to the L'Espresso website gives more details of the promotion.
"'68 e
dintorni" is the name of the series, looking at classic movies, that
Zabriskie Point will be released as part of. The DVD will NOT be
available elsewhere.
Our thanks to our friend Nino Gatti, who runs an Italian Floyd fansite, for his help with this story.
