Tarantino doesn't just revive the careers of fading actors. Legendary composer Ennio Morricone has gotten regular love on the Tarantino circuit since Kill Bill: Vol. 1. The director clearly felt that Morricone's career defining work on spaghetti Westerns was an important formative influence on his own career, and brought him on board. Morricone's sound is as much part of western movie legend as hats and horses. He is responsible for the quintessential spaghetti western tune in "The Ecstasy of Gold" from The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly. For a 70 mm western Tarantino flick, there is no other option for the score than Morricone.
