It was inspiring to hear Ennio Morricone explain in detail the inspiration, intention, and the intricate writing process behind each of his iconic movie themes. Nearly 150 minutes flew in a jiffy. A must watch for film score fans. #EnnioFilm https://t.co/EsknzA1hN9

From Oscar®-winning director Giuseppe Tornatore (Cinema Paradiso), Ennio celebrates the life and legacy of the legendary Italian composer Ennio Morricone, who passed away on 6 July 2020. Through interviews with directors, screenwriters, musicians, songwriters, critics and collaborators, Tornatore’s documentary retraces the life and works of the cinema’s most popular and prolific 20th century composer - who wrote over 500 scores for film & television and sold over 70 million records - from his cinema debut with Sergio Leone, to winning an Academy Award for The Hateful Eight in 2016.
