    Love his soundtracks but what a bloody weird bloke to consider your hero.

    Who gives a flying feck about you and what you do in your sad pathetic life of sexual frustration. The fact that he is one of your heros pretty much describes what we already think your like away from this forum.
    Why don't you just feck off you sad pathetic spunk guzzling Tw@t!!!!

    Why ? I am not weird I did not get the chance to see Bernstein or John barry the real masters of film and Ennio you will admit is brilliant and what am is immaterieal to these 3 immortals, just as Bob stokoe in football. Teeside you always vent your frustration on me why ? just get ****ed and take it out of the yank.

    Because film composers don't tend to be people's hero's. Simple as that. It's a weird choice.

    Sergio Leone was a real master of film. Morricone was doing great work in the background but that's what a soundtrack is. It's a piece of a puzzle that Leone put together.

    It's like Brian Epstein, Drew Bundini Brown or James Camerons special effects guy being someone's hero. Yeah they did good work but at what they're best at... They're a sideshow.

    Other than those who work in their particular field... They're odd choices.

    That's a pretty normal choice. Not some bloke who wrote music for spaghetti westerns.

    Nick Cave and Warren Ellis are great film composers and Nick Cave is my hero (though it maynot be the right word, don't think inspiration is right either, more biggest admiration), mind you he also produces and records studio albums, is a play write and a novelist. So there's a canny bit more dimension to him.

    Nick Cave writes films too. Lawless is a ****ing masterpiece.

    He's a massive hero.

    Who's to say who a hero should be, it could be that bloke down the road who looked after your dog that one time, a critically acclaimed director, a soldier or your dad. Different things to different people.

    That's all well and good but some choices are just a bit ****ing odd mate. Barry Chuckle would be a weird choice. That's just how it is.
