Genre: Soundtrack

The soundtrack for Le Hasard et la Violence, a strange French-Italian movie which came out in 1974 and was directed by Philippe Labro and written by Jacques Lanzmann

It was a time of thesis flms on ultra- violence such as Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange (1971) and John Boorman's Deliverance (1972). Labro's feature flm differs from those of his American counterparts by an almost dreamlike approach and a soft psychedelia. A sort of lysergic atmosphere that has more to do with the idea of an LSD trip at Castel's than with Californian counterculture.

Michel Colombier, is a musician of classical formation, who went to the Conservatoire Supérieur de Musique in Paris. His music for Le Hasard et la Violence refects his career: from Gainsbourg to the Beach Boys, via Paul Williams. A soundtrack that goes from neoclassical to contemporary, via groovy pop and slow music along with the main theme, a killer ballad with timeless lyrics. a kind of romanticism specifc to Colombier. Let's forget our post- post modern irony that is no substitute for intelligence and let us be caught by the emotional power of this soundtrack.
