a fan of de palma? his wife, nancy?john? pertect thriller movie, passthe popcorn. ?Bonus, to find out the score is written by a brilliant man,pinto....? I'm sure this movie / actors/ John & Nancy/and the music score Pino Donaggio's " Blow out theme* & De Palma's *can't spell* would be able to shut down the rag magazines? John Travolta is perfection in this movie. As is Miss Allen. Fuck the critics. So, I hope this thriller is given a second chance.... to kick your pysch ass.... lol
I always say that whenever I hear someone talk about this movie."It was a good scream."I was 12 when I first watched this movie and this song still depresses the hell out of me.
I remember being about 12 years old when this movie came out and as a kid i couldnt get it out of my head, mind u i made my mother buy me the cassette tape and i played this track so much i damaged my radio lol..... But now it reminds me of my mother she is gone now but this song chokes me up all the time the piano playing slowing at the end always gets me.....
amazing music.and I'm very proud to be italian like pino donaggio:brian de palma make great film and pino donaggio dress this movies with unforgettable music......
Gosh this is such gorgeous music: it perfectly underscores a fledgling romance cut tragically short (no pun intended) in a movie that was otherwise pure terror, murder, and suspense.
Pino Donaggio's music for Blow Out and Carrie can literally reach into your soul and rip your heart out of your chest while it's still beating. Excuse me while I get some tissues. **sobs**
What l never was able to get out of my mind the first time l saw this movie is how Jack barely saved her life the first time and then in the end, well, you know. lt's irony simply taken to tragic proportions. l give Nancy Allen tremendous credit for being filmed in that submerged car; drowning while trapped in an auto was purported to be one of her worst fears: it's still one of mine. Just a brilliant film from start to finish, back when artists were still creating these gems, and utilizing powerful musical scores to boot.
@@sadiqurrahman9741 Agreed. It haunted me the first time I saw it and all these years later it still does. This film holds up magnificently while transporting me back to the late 70s, early 80s. It just doesn't get any better.
@@cynthialyman2636 100% agreed, holds up magnificently, watched this yesterday, almost 40 years after it got released. still so hauntingly beautiful. Brian De Palma, What a filmmaker!
Ain't Nancy Allen just the girl! Listening to this I can dig John T sitting on a cold park bench, heartbroken...I used to put this movie on when my autistic boy was at his worse condition, helpless. He concentrated with all he had watching and cried naturally and was at peace for a while. Movies are great tools.
Everybody’s talking about how underrated and great this movie is and how John Travolta was excellent. But nobody talk about one of the scariest and greatest performances ever in a movie by John Lithgow, he was terrifying as a serial killer in Blow Out. And was even one of his first movies
When I first Saw this Movie I was Hoping He was gonna Save her Again!!! So Sad he tried real hard but couldn’t. She was kinda Naive and too Trusting. Usually prostitutes gave trust issues but she seemed kind still and It was Sad. Especially for him. I feel he really Cared for her. Poor Sally.
He managed to save her once but couldnt do it the second time...and the sad thing is that it was some what his fault for putting her in a dangerous position. He now has to live with that guilt forever...
didn't expect that the ending to be that sad . which is .not match with the comedy tone from very beginning shockly ， and it is the golden time of de palma ， great
Sally was Nancy Allen's name? Oh yeah. I was forced to watch Robocop again, and I again realised how much i love Miss Allen. Everything in her is just berries, apples, and smiles that make you faint. She is the one person I would feel awesome speechless out-of-body experience when you're just recording everything and can't do much, if I ever could meet her. What a wondrful, ridiculous idea! But it would sure get to be on tape :D
