The soundtrack of "White Nights" (1985) is very good. Excellent movie. I was reminded of it the other day when the title song of the movie, Lionel Richie's Academy Award winning "Say You, Say Me", was on the radio. Ironic though that it is not on the soundtrack due to an issue with Richie's label not wanting it on a competitor record label. Even without it, the soundtrack is fantastic.
White Nights is a 1985 American musical drama film directed by Taylor Hackford and starring Mikhail Baryshnikov, Gregory Hines, Jerzy Skolimowski, Helen Mirren and Isabella Rossellini. It was choreographed by Twyla Tharp. The title refers to the sunlit summer nights of Leningrad, the setting for the majority of the film, situated just a few degrees below the Arctic Circle.
I'm a friendly, non-dev, cisgender guy from NC who enjoys playing music/making noise, hiking, eating veggies, and hanging out with my best friend/wife + our 3 kitties + 1 greyhound.
Oooo this sounds like an interesting one! I'm loving all the different artists here — Phil Collins, Robert Plant, Roberta Flack, Chaka Khan, Lou Reed... what a wild and awesome mix! I'll definitely tune into this one... gonna have to look up the film too!
The film is great. Fantastic acting by all of the leads: Baryshnikov, Gregory Hines, Helen Mirren, and Isabella Rossellini. Great dancing from Baryshnikov and Hines. At times, the use of music is almost like another character (e.g. using it to hide conversations from the Soviet security detail listening in on everything). Mid-80s cold war drama.
