Days of Heaven Soundtrack [1978-2011]

 
While many fans are quick to point out the extremely beautiful visual characteristics of Terrence Malick's DAYS OF HEAVEN, few may not be as quick to put the spotlight on Ennio Morricone's effectively complementary score. This two disc set features the original 1978 original soundtrack album as well as the rest of the cues used in the picture. Because Morricone gave Malick permission to move his cues around throughout the picture at Malick's pleasure, little was known about what Morricone's original intentions truly were...until now. Here's the blurb from FSM's web site explaining exactly how the album is laid out and the significance of the ordering of the cues.
