Jackson (Original Soundtrack)

Original soundtrack to the motion picture composed by Frankie Blue Sposato AKA Frankie Blue. Frankie is a film and television composer with a remarkable musical background. Directed by J. F. Lawton, writer, director, producer of PRETTY WOMAN, UNDER SIEGE and DEAD ON ARRIVAL, JACKSON takes place in a single day that turns into a cold rainy night. Fueled by bottles of Thunderbird, Donald and Sam end up having a great adventure filled with humor, philosophy, danger and hope. In one of the most unusual aspects of the film, their story is accented by other down and out characters who express themselves by singing some of the world's greatest opera arias. From an old drunk Richard Brown singing a Donizetti duet with a crack addict Shawnette Sulker, to a bag lady Ella Lee singing Carmen, these surreal musical sequences stand apart from but enrich Donald and Sam's journey. What begins as a simple tale about two bums becomes a story about the beauty and resilience of the human spirit.
