Quartet Records and El Deseo present the premiere soundtrack release of the iconic Spanish comedy Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios (Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown) celebrating the 30th anniversary of its film release.
Written and directed by Pedro Almodovar in 1988 and starring Carmen Maura, Antonio Banderas, Maria Barranco, Rossy de Palma, Chus Lampreave and Fernando Guillen, the film is about a dubbing actress who encounters a variety of eccentric characters after embarking on a journey to discover why her lover abruptly left her. Hugely successful at the worldwide box office, the film was an Academy-Award nominee for Best Foreign Language Film.
The music was composed by Bernardo Bonezzi (Sin noticias de Dios, Mari del Sud, ?Que he hecho yo para merecer esto!), Almodovar’s usual composer during his first period. Far from a comedy score, Bonezzi's music accompanies and envelops the character of Pepa (Carmen Maura) in the difficult moments that thread through the film as she searches for the lover who has abandoned her when he discovers she is pregnant. Bonezzi acknowledged it was a tribute to Bernard Herrmann and the Frank Skinner scores for the films of Douglas Sirk; it also includes a fun homage to Planet of the Apes by Jerry Goldsmith.
A selection of seven cues was included in the compilation “3 Films by Almodovar” (Tabu Records) and “Almodovar Early Films” (Silva Screen), but the official original soundtrack was never released. Now, we are proud to present the Bonezzi score in its entirety, mastered from the original tapes. The album also includes the key songs that open and close the film: “Soy infeliz” performed by Lola Beltran, and the famous “Puro Teatro” by La Lupe.
Exclusive package designed by Juan Gatti (the designer of the original art and main titles for the film) includes liner notes by Pedro Almodovar, Jose M. Benitez, Mario Vaquerizo and Diego Galan. ---レーベルより

アカデミー賞、ゴールデン・グローブ賞外国語映画賞ノミネート作。鬼才ペドロ・アルモドバル監督のハイセンス・ブラック・コメディ。30年経ってようやくサウンドトラックが世界初リリース! 限定500枚。
トラックリスト夜のマドリードの一角。そこのベンチにある一人の女性が腰を下ろした。彼女、ペパ・マルコスは不眠症に加え、妊娠の可能性にいらだっている上、何年も一緒に暮らしてきた男から突然別れ話を留守電に録音され、もうキレる寸前の状態だった。そんな訳で、彼女は男が20年以上も昔に付き合っていた中年女、ルシアのアパートの前までやって来て、窓からライバルの様子を覗き見しようというのだが……。鬼才アルモドバル独特の映像・演出で、恋に悩む女達の心理のアヤを、アナーキーな笑いの奥から浮かび上がらせるハイセンス・ブラック・コメディだが、加えて現代における文明の利器--電話を皮肉ったコメディでもある。映画の中には、それで成立しているものは“真のコミュニケーション”ではない、といったメッセージと、皮肉の毒がいたるところに散りばめられている。
