ENNIO | Official Trailer | Music Box Films

Giuseppe Tornatore, director of the beloved CINEMA PARADISO, turns his camera on his longtime collaborator Ennio Morricone (1928 - 2020) in a moving and comprehensive profile of the indefatigable composer. Tornatore’s documentary portrait examines the breadth of the maestro’s career, from his early Italian pop songs to the fistful of unforgettable film scores that he wrote, including THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY, THE THING, DAYS OF HEAVEN, and hundreds of others. Packed with insightful commentary from Morricone’s collaborators and contemporaries, ENNIO affords the master one last chance to recount his career and deconstruct his artistic process.

“…a lively, absorbing documentary…”
- Manohla Dargis, New York Times

“A painstakingly detailed, fantastically entertaining deep dive”
- Leslie Felperin, The Guardian

“A great mosaic of cinema and music”
- Saskia Lloyd Gaiger, Little White Lies

“Ennio leaves one wanting to rewatch dozens of movies, dig up more for the first time, and scour the internet for Italian pop records that may never have been released on these shores. Thank goodness Mario Morricone talked his son out of going to med school.”
- John DeFore, The Hollywood Reporter

Un uomo umile, un talento incommensurabile, grazie al maestro Tornatore per averlo omaggiato. Grazie al Maestro Ennio Morricone per aver regalato tanto nutrimento intellettivo!

I can't believe that Tornatore did not include l'arena from The Mercenary in the film. (Also My name is nobody main theme) That said, it was the best documentary I have ever seen. 98/100.

Lovely movie, from the one and only Maestro!

Watch that 2 years ago in the cinema. Was only 1 projection. Since then, barely available anywhere, such a shame to block that distribution so much.

Bravissimo !! I wish he'd lived long enough to score a musical version of 1966's "The Ghost & Mr. Chicken". Attaboy Luther, indeed....
