John Barry - Follow Me! (1972) Original Soundtrack
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 сен 2016
- The melody is pure 1970s John Barry, catchy swirling haunting string melody repeating in slightly different forms, each song never lasting more than 2-3 minutes. I have never seen the film but came across "Follow Follow" on a vinyl album of easy listening tracks from the early 70s in my parent's record collection. The orchestral only version of the Main "Follow Me" theme is called "Follow Follow" and appears in the middle of the album. This is the original version of the track I remember on viynl, and is very remincent of his music for the TV show "The Persuaders" and seems too melancholly to feature in a film that was essentially a romantic comedy. I can find little about the 1972 film which starred Mia Farrow, Topol and Michael Jayston, other than it was director Carol Reed's last film. It is probably very much of it's time judging by the album cover artwork.
If you are a fan of John Barry's film music, this is definately worth getting as it is not on any of the greatest/very best of type compilations. Once heard the often repeated melody will stay with you for a long time - amazon review
Follow Me! is a 1972 drama film directed by Sir Carol Reed, starring Mia Farrow and Topol. Adapted by Peter Shaffer from his own play (The Public Eye). The picture marks Carol Reed's last completed film. The film was released in the United States under its original stage title The Public Eye. The score was composed by John Barry and the film was edited by Anne V. Coates.

映画も観ました。数年前テレビで放送されたのを録画して、それを何度も何度も繰り返し観ています。特に音楽は好きな部分を何度も繰り返し再生しています。本当に素晴らしい音楽です。
高校時代、受験勉強中にラジオから毎日のように流れ、癒された曲。
大学に入り、学内のホールでフィルムクラブが上映してくれた。
オープニングで、物凄い迫力の音響をバック目にしたロンドンの街並みに感動‼️
そして心温まるストリーに涙。
家に帰るまでの１時間半は本当に満たされた時間でした。
大学3年、ロンドンに行きたい❗️
という夢がようやく実現、
バッグパッキングでの貧乏旅行
でも映画に登場した場所をたどる旅、心はリッチ
頭の中では Follow Me の切ないメロディがリフレイン
約10年前DVD化、予約購入。宝物です。
I caught it originally here in Tokyo on cable movie channel. I fell in love with this movie. Later, after I posted a scene from it back in the early 2000s, someone in Sweden wrote to me asking if I had a copy and could I send it to her for her mother. I had taped it off TV and made a copy for her and sent it. She received it and she and her ailing mother enjoyed the film very much. She was so thankful, brought tears to my eyes. Truly a magical film.
I had to buy a Japanese import of the film.
A truly delightful and memorable film, Topol rarely better and Mia also a delight. Such a clever premise too. Loved it as a young man, my wife loved it and now our daughters love it. Such a lovely haunting soundtrack to a tale of misunderstanding. If you have not seen it, it's worth finding.
別府の寂れた映画館で小さい頃観ました。あの頃を思い出します。決して楽しい少年期ではなかった。だけど、このメロディーがそんな寂しい思い出さえやさしく包んでくれます。
1980年頃、東京の下高井戸東映で観ました❗
いい映画でした。
当時ファンだった竹下景子さんが、好きな映画と言っていたこともあって観ました。
Grazie John R.I.P. :(
A nice small film that sneaks up on you. Mia Farrow is the unhappy housewife, Topol is the detective, and Michael Jayston is the husband. I met Michael Jayston about two years ago at a Doctor Who Convention. (He played the Valeyard.) He's quite elderly now and rather deaf. I asked him about his 1973 performance in a BBC version of Jane Eyre. He's rather proud of that performance. If I'd had known he was in this film, I would have asked him about it too. I saw this movie a long time ago on TV, and it is haunting.
Nice comment
.....John Barry non si smentisce mai...
Sensuale dolce e malinconica...
Salvata nella play list a lui dedicata ...
John Barry does it again.... the music makes the movie ......
This melody takes me to heaven, it makes me cry, how beautiful it is❤❤❤
I was crying too 😪😢😓
Yes! This is the very best movie and best sounds.♪♬
"Follow Me" this song makes me cry and always cheer me up!♡
One of the most beautiful melodies I've ever heard....full of melancholie and tristesse. Life is a dream. Thank you for these beautiful moments.
This is the soundtrack to a very sweet movie starring wonderful actors. It did not do well enough @ the box office to be put out, eventually, on DVD. I was shown on TV channels back in the 70s, but then disappeared from view. A DVD is now very recently available in the UK using European standard DVD, thus most American DVD players will not play it. I have a DVD player that seamlessly plays both European standard and American standard DVDs. I sent for a copy of this movie on DVD from the UK and it arrived @ my home in America yesterday. I just played it today and found this movie to be just as delightful as I remembered it to be.
学生時代に早稲田のパール座で観ました！名作です。音楽が素晴らしく、約50年経っても感動が蘇ります。🎬
この映画🎦の素晴らしさを観ていない友人に観せたくてDVD📀を買いました❗️連続で2回も観てしまいました。シャルウィダンスの探偵事務所🕵️♀️にあった写真を見てみたい❣️
ずっと ずっと 聴き続けていたい気がする。誰かについてきていてほしい 振り返っても誰もいないさみしさが落ち葉のように心に降り積もっていく。・・・なんてね
Agreeable!!!
Wonderful
One of my best films.
fanntastiku
i lovinng for ever
i was liveng london when i saw this moovi four year,
i was there
It's really a stunning and wonderful music to listening to a lot 😢😢😢
I am so happy I came across this movie, it is super charming and very, very special, I mean it stays with you forever, it really reaches your heart. The actors are brilliant, the music is haunting and so romantic, the atmosphere is hypnotising and Michael Jayston is so handsome. The dance scene is simply adorable. I watched this so many times and never get enough. RUclips has been blocking it worldwide, this is why no one knows about it.
I have never seen the movie, but i'd like to, the music Is hipnotizing, what a beautiful melody❤❤❤ only John Barry 😊😊😊
@@user-pf6jh7qm6p It is available to watch, but still blocked on YT.
I fell in love with Topol and forgot the husband had as much screen time as he does.
I think Lost in Translation took a bite out of it.
WOW, John Barry has been my favorite composer since my Dad brought home Goldfinger to me when I was 8 years old. I thought I knew all of his scores, but had never heard this one until now.
I was fortunate to see the movie on Turner Classic Movies as a teenager and I was mesmerized. I’m glad I found this after so many years. Thank you😊
Like most John Barry's score the music is far better than the film. He was a master.
Fantastic Symphony
stunning, melancolic, mesmerising, captivating, hypnotizing, what else...... thank you John Barry, Topol, Mia Farrow for the beautiful music and charming movie. A soft reminder of the beautiful 70's and 80's when Music and Movies made sense
Its wonderful its a dream❤
An exquisite music for a truly unique movie.
Obra maestra.
自分が中学生の時の映画
トポルが良い。
Such lush, beautiful music! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for Upload. In Japan(I am Japanese) , this film is one of the symbol and memory of youthful age for many people in same generation (may be orgin at least for me) . This film gets Mega Hits in early 1973 in Japan and theme song contimuously hits for one years. From radio we could listen to this theme agian and again especially in midnight. Unfortunately in foriegn country it could not capture mind of audience. it is pity. Anyway in Japan this film can be seen until 70th end(probably) in some theater in Tokyo and soundtrack album has been sold for 6 or 7 years from film opens (Victor Records). I saw this film several times (at least third times) in the theater. Box office is filled with smiles and tears of "Happiness" (not saddness ) . It is very rare movie. By the way everyone was very surprised that this sentimetal theme was written by John Barry (famous as Bond composer in that period.).
It is amazing to read your comments because they are very similar to my experience. But I was living in Iran at the time this movie was released and I watched it a few times in theaters and have never forgotten how it made me feel good at that time. This proves to me that human emotions and feelings are almost the same regardless of the country of residence and the culture under which we are brought up. Now, I live in the USA and have tried to find the DVD copy of this movie without success. One last note, John Barry's most famous theme is "Born Free" but I like this theme more than any of his other themes.
Thanks for sharing. Glad you like it
突然意味不明ですが

I had an instrumental of this track on 7" vinyl in the 70's, I had no idea JB was behind it.
Davvero bellissimo; Grazie!
One of the most beautiful films I've ever watched. Excellent performances by the 3 main characters in the film. Topol, steals the show, with his flawless performance. The soundtrack will live with me forever! If you ever stumble across the film... then I highly recommend you watch it! London was so beautiful then. Thank you for posting.
How did u watch it? Where can i find?
I agree ,I remember recording this on a VHS tape and still have it today, the music from the early 70s was so special in films and TV shows that you never forget it , London at that time, the wild, hair and clothing and flares trousers and bright colours .and all the landscape of London
This soundtrack was used in the Egyptian Arabic adaptation of "Vertigo"; priceless
Egyptian movie Al Waham is a great movie with beautiful memories watching the movie with my family. Those where the days
Great work John Barry....a wonderful movie ..not making a great fuss...still fantastic
Я балдею от такой музыки... Спасибо Джон Барри... ❤💯💥🙏
Devine music
Coincidence? I checked on IMDB and what did I see? Michael Jayston, born October 29th, 1935! - Today!
I have never seen this movie but this music strikes my soul deep by its purness, humor, cuteness and comfort.
I heard of it! I saw it when it first came out, here in the States where it was known as The Public Eye.
この曲を聴くと 元TBSの林美雄アナウンサーを思い出します。
Wow GORGEOUS 💛💛💛
Movie is fun :-) , love Topols performance
This music was created in the Haven!
Thank you so much for this beautiful music of John Barry. I love his music and this now , one of my favorites!

Because I'm often going back and checking stuff, I'm slowly transferring my 70s diaries to a digital form and on May 14, 1978 it seems I watched this film on TV in the UK. I was 20 then and rarely noted down films but it reads... 'Great'. Not quite a Barry Norman appraisal and though I haven't seen the film since, it obviously touched me in some way. I even have a couple of small newspaper TV listings clips re the film also in the diary, along with a scrawled note where it seems I was trying to work out (from record release sources of the day) who sang the theme. Listening to this soundtrack now I think I need to get around to seeing it again sometime to see what this nearing 62+ year old will make of the sound and visual combination now. Thanks for uploading.
Love this movie.
excuse me can you help me to get the link to this film
What is the movie name?
great film! great music!
I love this awesome brilliant music so much I don't know why its got me in another world .
Networkonair will be releasing this film on DVD & Blu-ray next Monday (19th Aug 19)
Playwright Peter Shaffer's unusual title "The Public Eye" comes because he also wrote another play with this one titled "The Private Ear" they are sometimes performed together on stages.
There was a TV series called "The Public Eye" at the time, so in some countries the movie is called "Follow Me!"
Thank you for the upload of this complete music. The film is also very good. I have not been able to obtain the DVD unfortunately.
Great Melody and Symphony ..... Thank you for the video and your effort ❤❤
GOOD MUSIC FROM JOHN BARRY THANKS
Outstanding music
❤
Thank you so much for this!
You're very welcome
Right time :)
good ..good
Saw it on TV, in 1974 I think. I remember it had a brief fanfare composed by Barry during the opening Universal Pictures logo. I mention it because no one I know has ever remarked anything about it.
That's correct! I found a recording on an old VCR Tape of the first 7 minutes with german audio and the Universal opening fanfare. It is a recording from the second german public television ZDF aired on Saturday January 8th 1977 - 8:15 pm with german title "Ein liebenswerter Schatten" (A lovely shadow).

Anyone knows where to find that music ? Which app ? Also the movie I can’t find it
follow me soundtrack is one of sixty most beatiful, interesting, profound, original, harmonically complex, underappreciated and comfortable albums we succeeded to find in three years of extensive youtube search in which we listened to about three thousand albums. we organized those jewels in three playlists with twenty albums on each and here's the link to the first one if you're interested: ruclips.net/p/PLnOZ01-aml2zetoGU5UvR5UpyrD-ZOJXb
Cool, thanks Future!
@@cosdrag8807 thank YOU, without you we probably wouldn't ever even hear of it, and the movie, which was also fun to watch (well, with a soundtrack like that...)
I need a link to watch or download this movie
Me toi :(

👐🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🌷
This film is an embarrassing vestige of the 60s, with stock characters and a dated score from the usually reliable John Barry.
Dated by whose opinion?
@@cosdrag8807 - films like this, which tried to grasp the "Zeitgeist" of a particular period, have the shortest shelf life. I've found this to be true especially of the "cool" films of the 60s, a decade I did indeed live through. I find it easier to watch beach blanket movies than stuff like this that takes itself seriously. Your own post indicates you've never seen the film. I caught it on TCM several years back...wait for it! John Barry did so much BETTER work than this cheesy pop score.
Well I for one think this score is magnificent, and the fact that you yourself sought it out on youtube might indicate the same. But comments are always welcome! Thanks
@@cosdrag8807 - I have a friend who has recently become a John Barry junkie, but only seems to know his big classic scores. I sought this one out to show him that Barry could write duds as well. I hope you have a chance to see the film! Every time the music starts up, it's like getting on an elevator in the 1960s!
Well I for one don't find this score a 'dud' as you say, in fact I find it very powerful. As most of John Barry's work. But I do appreciate your opinion
