Plots(1)
Jack Terri (John Travolta) is a talented sound-effects technician who records atmospheric audio for the movies. Driven to capture the perfect most authentic sounds he ventures out into the dark of the night, where his talent and attention to detail may become his undoing. Accidentally recording the blow-out from a fatal automobile accident responsible for the death of a high-profile presidential candidate, Jack is instantly drawn into a web of conspiracy and intrigue that will place him in a position of considerable jeopardy. He enlists the help of Sally (Nancy Allen), a possible eyewitness to the crime, desperate to uncover the truth and prove his alarming theory of political assassination. With a stunning new transfer supervised by De Palma, also featuring John Lithgow and Dennis Franz, Blow Out is a riveting ride into the mechanics of movie making, exploring the fear of paranoia and playing on perception with more than a knowing nod to Alfred Hitchcock.

Blow Out
Original MGM Motion Picture Soundtrack
Label: Intrada
Year: 2014
Country: USA
Format: CD
Length: 50:35
Notes: After Pino Donaggio recorded his 55-minute score for Blow Out on 2″ 24-track tape at A & R Recording Studios in New York City, he mixed and edited approximately 48 minutes of it down to ¼″ 15 ips two-track stereo for inclusion on a possible soundtrack album. The album never materialized and those two rolls of stereo tape are all that has survived of the score. They are the source of this current CD, made available courtesy of MGM and housed in perfect condition in their vaults.
