White Nights: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

an old favorite

I bought this cd to replace a tape (tape? OMG) of the soundtrack. I'd recently seen a cabaret performance where the singer incorporated "Separate Lives" in the repertoire and it reminded me I hadnt heard this score recently. There are some top notch performers here, but mostly it evokes my visions of two dynamic performers being recorded on video for all time. The movie is also one of my favs. September 15, 2008

Needed more Oscars than just for Original Song

This film is easily one of my three favorite movies of all time. It has it all: great acting, amazing dancing, music that won't quit, and edge-of-your-seat plotline. The producers put the world's best ballet dancer with the world's best tap dancer (Hines' Porgy and Bess cameo is spectacular) and made everything about the pairing work. Aside from the incredible dancing (including a pas de deux unrivaled since its creation), the dynamic between Hines and Baryshnikov at the drama level goes far beyond expectations in this lesser-known yet brilliant film.

A few worthwhile tracks

The bulk of this album is forgettable, cheesy 80s pop. But if the price is right, it's worth buying for the included tracks from Robert Plant and John Hiatt, and to a lesser extent those from Roberta Flack and Lou Reed. On the other hand, if you're the kind of person who actually enjoys inspid love songs from the likes of Phil Collins, then you might just love this album. July 24, 2007

Starring My Love is Chemical

What better way to remember the brilliance of White Nights and Baryshnikov dancing to My Love is Chemical? June 8, 2007
