A powerful and beautiful Georges Delerue score from 1990 returns after almost 30 years! A Show of Force was a political thriller directed by Bruce Barreto and starring Amy Irving, Robert Duvall. Andy Garcia and Lou Diamond Phillips.

Originally release on the Varèse Sarabande sub-label called Colossal, this stunning Delerue score was available for only a short time. Here’s a second chance for everyone who missed it at the time or maybe wasn’t even collecting yet back in 1990. Just listen to the clips! We are so excited to welcome this one back!

Inspired by a true story, A SHOW OF FORCE follows a TV reporter's investigation into the brutal and suspicious deaths of two young Puerto Rican nationalists. The government claims the victims were terrorists, while some believe them to be student activists. It's up to this crusading reporter to find the truth despite threats to her own life.

Delerue recorded an hour and four minutes of music for this film:

Too bad they didn't bother to expand it.

Well, maybe it was album re-recording, and Music Box will release actual score one day?
Remember Boy Who Could Fly situation?

That is indeed a shame. And it's not as if they don't care about expanding Delerue as they did The Big Woo edition of Joe vs. the Volcano (well, that was Masters Film Music to be exact).

I would point out that your figure includes alternates. According to the link, full score was 47 minutes. But I will grant that some of those alternates sound pretty important to hear.

The director of the film is Bruno Barreto, not BRUCE Barreto. Hopefully that will get updated in the item description.

They named the SHARK Bruce, not Amy's next husband!

Received the CD. Case smashed into several pieces, so badly that the back sheet is ripped with the spine torn away, and the booklet damaged.



Update: Replacement received from Naxos five days later, in good condition.

Anyone have this?
Is there any difference in sound from the previous release ?

I haven't upgraded but it already sounds like my copy from nearly 30 years ago is in better nick than this one!!

This one has grown on me.

Sadly, Delerue usually doesn't do too much for this score enthusiast.
