    "The Eiger Sanction" (1975) was Clint Eastwood's fourth picture with himself in the director's chair and to this day his most difficult to be shot.
    After previous successes, he felt a serious challenge of film making should mark his next project and the production of "Eiger" turned out to be exactly that for the cast and crew. The result is a movie with great scenery and cinematography, great stunts (Eastwood did his ones all by himself) and a fantastic musical score.
    John Williams, who certainly had his most fruitful and creative years during the 70s and 80s, provided a great and lush score for Eastwood's mountain-movie, cleverly adapting jazz and classical influences into his writing. And while we are now listening to the film version of the score, it must be said that the album arrangements are top notch (oh, the jazzy adaptations of the love theme!) and are very worth a listen, as well. They are yet another testament for Williams' very creative years and shouldn't be overlooked. Enjoy!

    Holy Cow! Williams was certainly firing on all cylinders on this one! Lovely and evocative it reminds me at times of "The Towering Inferno" and a bit of Goldsmith's "The Last Run", and some Lalo Schrifrin thrown in. Having not seen this film, I can honestly say that the score holds up well on its own. I especially enjoy the theme/progression of the early piano-flute theme of the intro, 'Friends and Enemies' where it is developed, and elsewhere where it is repeated. The orchestration is lovely - especially the strings in "Running with George". Now I have to find the film and watch it. More money flying out of my wallet. Thanks Fred.

    John Williams film scores are so incredibly varied. The range of his compositional talents are exceptional. Variations on a films theme is rarely used today. Williams is a master of that lost art. It's too bad that more often than not music is relegated behind sound effects as being important to modern films.

      I was on You Tube about a couple of months ans somebody spoke about John Williams and said his music was okay , not in the class of Bernard Herrmann , but to me there five film soundtracks Star Wars ET Raiders of the Lost Ark Superman and Schinders list others Harry Potter ,Hook, Empire of the Sun and i pointed out i have seen all these films and also have on CD John Williams Greatest Hits !969 to 1999, i got no reply back

    • @doogboh

      Goldsmith is the master (of theme and variation); for the last 50 years, John Williams has principally been a leitmotivic composer (which is too bad -- because, seemingly like you, I prefer a thematically synergetic approach that, really, makes more logical sense anyway).

    Heard the egomaniac at Disney, Bob Iger, has a poster of this movie on his wall that reads "The Iger Sanction" so I decided to watch the movie to see what it was all about.. Once I heard Williams' theme I was hooked. Felt good to hear one of his pre-Star Wars scores. The guy is a freaking legend.

    Something I have always loved about JW scores is that he always comes with a full toolbox, i.e. you're getting ALL the instruments - oh, and a harpsichord...maybe a celeste? Who else does that? On almost every score!

    Hi, Fred! It is always interesting to hear Williams away from the influence of Spielberg. Here he is really alone, because Eastwood paid no attentions to musicians of the style of Williams. And I would like to know what idea the composer had in mind when he created a recurring theme in the style of Francis Lai for a spy film!... Williams is right when it changes the tone of the main theme in " The Icy Ascent "; in the grandiose " The Top of the World " ( something left over from " The Towering Inferno "); the bombastic " Fifty Miles of Desert " ( which starts with a frentic mid - low piano marked by a triangle and is gradually increased by the brass horns ); and other excellent tracks, like " The Microfilm Killing " and " Up the Drainpipe " ( once again, I have this soundtrack on vinyl )... Very interesting and curious!! Thanks, Fred, and bye!!

    Tra i film diretti da Clint Eastwood questo poterebbe sembrare il meno convincente.
    Invece bisogna soffermarsi sulla sua indubbia capacità di mettere in discussione tutti gli stereotipi classici.
    È curioso come a dispetto della critica prevalentemente negativa, proprio per il suo sapore kitsch e per la mano leggera col quale è stato girato, per i fan di Clint Eastwood questo sia uno dei suoi migliori film, forse il più amato dopo "Million Dollar Baby", e non solo un cult movie per gli amanti delle scalate in montagna.
    Eastwood qui è molto più loquace e spiritoso che in tutti i suoi altri film, forse involontariamente ispirato allo James Bond di quegli anni, Roger Moore.

    Clint Eastwood's soundtrack for his film The Eiger Sanction was composed and conducted by John Williams. The soundtrack of The Eiger Sanction is very similar to the song [[[ Aşk Oyunu ]]] by Turkish singer [[[ Kenan Doğulu ]]]
