Saw this opening night and can tell you, the score had a big impact. Certain cues, the theater was quiet and you could hear the choir, and the audience was completely into it.

[makinci]

A real masterpiece with heroic notes of Maestro Poledouris. RIP

[mikewarren]

Whenever you have such an amazing and immersive score to support the plot for a great movie, the music itself becomes one of the main characters. Well done!

This is a beautiful well written an composed soundtrack thank you for posting.

Such a great score by Basil Poledouris. It's funny how a time period of sociopolitical tension can give rise to such interesting musical styles. Then that style bleeds into a different medium like movie soundtracks. As always, Fred, you do great job picking the right cues when putting together these suites. They always make office work more fun while listening to them.

Menschlichen Stimmen sind die wichtigsten Instrumente in dieser erregenden Suite. Echt Klasse!

[notyerbuziness]

I am confused. Why would anyone down vote this?

[SH]

gives you the chills listening to this...

[DomCoates]

Have to admit Fred, having the picture of the composer at the start is such a small thing, but it humanises the piece as well as being a nice little bit of info! Cheers and keep up the good work, always like checking back every few months and seeing the new additions (my favourite is still John Addison's A Bridge too Far).

Basil Poledouris has made the greatest tracks for movies

[eddielee]

This music was the ' Voice ' for this movie .And Sean Connery of all actors I have to say his voice of Connery fit his character so well ! A Great movie ...

[Bondek]

"Nuclear Scam" alone is a powerful track with its use of the theme/Russian anthem. Moving in a singular way around the 11 minute mark.

[hsukpkg]

Outubro vermelho é um lindo filme e com bela trilha sonora. E Sean conery, e um super ator, eu o amo❤ como ator

[swordfish]

amazing russian choir... ! so heroic...!!!

[NIKOLASINGLESSIS]

more Russian than the Russians Poledouris proved himself as a one of the greatesr soundtrak composres!!!

[Bokkie]

Kamarade commandant Marco Ramius, commandant en second Borodine, parez à plonger, assiette moins 30...désolé pour ce délire, que de souvenirs avec Uss Alabama 😅😅😅😢

[xyz.ijk.]

Thank you for doing this -- it is, indeed, an extraordinary score. Do you know whether there is a libretto for the words and a translation?

[timberwolf]

This was written for the film? I always genuinely thought it was a piece of classic Russian orchestra, outstanding, beautiful Russian tones and old soviet atmosphere, you can hear the cold snow, you can hear the stoic endurance of a beautiful people, amazing

I can ruin this tune for you though, if you dont wish to have it so...do not read on...



2:34 *pump the braaakes... PUMP THE BRAAAAKES*

[robertcohn]

The beginning of this suite sounds like music from "The Russians are Coming, the Russians are Coming" when we see the submarine. Great compilation. Thanks very much for posting.
