Ryuichi Sakamoto - High Heels: Soundtrack (1991) US Release 1992

High Heels (Spanish: Tacones lejanos) is a 1991 Spanish melodrama film written and directed by Pedro Almodóvar and starring Marisa Paredes, Victoria Abril and Miguel Bosé. The plot follows the fractured relationship between a self-involved mother who is a famous torch song singer and the grown daughter she had abandoned as a child. The daughter, who works as a TV newscaster, has married her mother's ex-lover and has befriended a female impersonator. A murder further complicates this web of relationships. The film was selected as the Spanish entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 64th Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee.

The combined effects of voice, music and lyrics is one of the most prominent features of Almodóvar as a filmmaker. The director finds his most significant musical economy in the highly expressive boleros, which are at the forefront in this film. Almodóvar explained that he listened to an enormous number of songs to find those he used in the film. He finally chose Piensa en Mí and Un año De Amor. His idea was to find songs that would correspond to a singer such as Becky del Páramo both at the start and at the end of her career. Piensa en Mí is a very famous song in Mexico. It was composed by Agustín Lara and sung by Lola Beltrán. The director eventually chose a version by Chavela Vargas, sung as a lament. Un Año de amor, which Letal sings in playback during his show, is a French song by Nino Ferrer. There is a famous Italian version sung by Mina. Almodóvar rewrote the lyrics in Spanish.

Once the two songs were chosen Almodóvar had to find a voice that suited Becky del Páramo. After trying several voices, he found Luz Casal's fitted Marisa Paredes' appearance. Luz Casal, famous in Spain as a rock singer, accepted and the two songs became her biggest hits. Piensa en mi and Un año de amor, the songs that Luz Casal performed for the film were both included in her album A contraluz (Backlight), released in 1991.

High Heels also contains an unexpected prison yard dance sequence that makes reference to the famous musicals shot in fake prisons like Jailhouse Rock with Elvis Presley and John Waters’ Cry-Baby. The song used in that scene is a merengue: Pecadora by Los Hermanos Rosario.

The score, which Almodóvar did not like, was composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto. For the title sequence and Rebeca's second confession in High Heels, Almodóvar used pieces composed by Miles Davis in the Sixties, that were inspired by Flamenco. The first piece, heard while Rebeca is alone waiting for her mother, is called Solea, meaning solitude in Andalusian. After her second confession to judge Dominguez, when Rebeca goes to the cemetery to throw a handful of earth on her husband's coffin, we hear the second piece, Saeta, by Gil Evans, from his Sketches of Spain.

Almodóvar also used two themes composed by George Fenton for Dangerous Liaisons. They are heard when Rebeca leaves prison and goes home and when she returns to prison in the van.

This CD was somewhat done in the way that record companies used to release soundtracks; most of it is instrumental music played throughout the movie instead of cameo featured hits by artists who were too lazy to make a record that year. It's nice music; the movie was spectacular. There are two very nice songs on this CD, both sung by Luz Casal. One is a very sensual Un Ano De Amor (A Year of Love). The other is also very sultry, Piensa En Mi (Think of Me). They pretty much make the CD a worthwhile buy. If you like lounge music with a Spanish flare then you will like these songs. There is also a funny little euro disco instrumental that is kind of cool.
