in "Chariots of Fire (1981)". This picture is posted everywhere in the streets of Paris and athletes’ dormitories. At first glance, I felt that, The script and soundtrack of 1981 must have been created by staring at the posters of that year. Anyway, I won an Oscar.
That is the era of reading pictures, posters are in power, and newspapers are king. If you want to watch video news, you have to sit in the cinema.
The 8th Modern Olympic Games in Paris in 1924 was roughly of this scale:
... The French finances, which used to be very tight, were even more stretched. The French upper class even proposed to give up the right to host and let Los Angeles take over. The task is that the preparatory committee has withstood the pressure and overcame many difficulties. It raised 4 million francs and built the "Kelong City" sports field that can accommodate more than 60,000 people. However, the length of the cinder track in the stadium is 500 meters, which is not as good as the previous one. standard. In order to arrange accommodation for the athletes, the Preparatory Committee built a row of simple houses next to the stadium, which will be the embryonic form of the Olympic Village in the future. The sports meeting will be held from May 4th to July 27th. Compared with the second Olympic Games in 1900, the duration is much shorter. The official opening of the conference is July 5th. Before the opening ceremony and after the closing ceremony, there are competitions arranged... In the
movie, there is a scene in the movie where the heroic Scottish Eric runs for God, obeys the Ten Commandments, and refuses to play last Sunday. The crown prince came to coax him cheeky, saying that this is not just sacrificing performance opportunities for the country. However, Eric insists that God is greater than the emperor. I wonder why the schedule is so difficult to change. In the end, he changed events with his teammates and won. The narration at the end of the film shows that the Olympic Games is bigger than any one country. It's pretty good, and it doesn't fall into the clichés of winning glory for the country.
Check IMDB, most of the soundtracks made by Vangelis before Chariot of Fire are TV. It is not an exaggeration to say that Chariot of Fire has become famous in one fell swoop. I can compose at the age of 4 — I will compose if I don’t know the music — I’m 38 years old as Fire Chariot, 39 years old Blade Runner, 49 years old, conquering the Garden of Eden, 61 years old Alexander... Who are the young heroes and late bloomers. Vangelis’ famous saying: The sky comes from the hustle and bustle, what I did is that way.
"I function as a channel through which music emerges from the chaos of noise."-September, 1988
