Скачать или смотреть Death on the Nile. Nino Rota

Almost everyone on the S.S. Karnak, cruising the Nile, has a reason to want spoiled, selfish and beautiful heiress Linnet Ridgeway Doyle (Lois Chiles) dead. Her jewels are coveted by elderly Mrs. Van Schuyler (Bette Davis); her maid Louise (Jane Birkin) is upset because Linnet won't give her a promised dowry; writer Salome Otterbourne (Angela Lansbury) is facing a libel suit brought by Linnet; Salome's daughter Rosalie Otterbourne (Olivia Hussey) wants to protect her mother; Andrew Pennington (George Kennedy) has been embezzling from the Ridgeway family; and former friend Jacqueline De Bellefort (Mia Farrow) is more than a little angry and upset that Linnet stole her fiancé, Simon Doyle (Simon MacCorkindale). Renowned Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot (Peter Ustinov) must unravel the mystery when some passengers turn up dead.

This memorable soundtrack was written very late in his career by one of the most prolific and talented of film composers, Nino Rota, and is a fitting tribute to his consummate craftsmanship. The main theme gets the story off to a rousing start and it also makes a welcome return later, most notably when the steamship is getting under way for its fateful voyage down the Nile. By turns mysterious, suspenseful, languid and romantic, the rest of the wonderfully atmospheric music greatly supports and enhances the viewing experience, as any successful film music should.
