Umberto Tozzi
Umberto Tozzi was the perfect pop music composer to conjure up the migrant Italian
musical taste of the times, and the film includes grabs from his two best known tunes,
Gloria and Ti Amo.
In the DVD commentary, director Michael Pattinson and writer Jan Sardi discuss where the
idea of using Tozzi's music came from. Pattinson suggests that he first heard a Tozzi
album at Sardi's house, and Sardi agrees his mother was likely to have had a Tozzi album
because he was a big pop star in the 1980s - not such much a Jimmy Barnes as the Italian
male version of a Kylie Minogue.
There is no point spending any time on Tozzi here. He is an Italian pop musician and
composer, and he has a detailed wiki here - though pub quiz competitors might score extra
points for noting that Laura Branigan, who sang Gloria up a storm in 1982, appeared as
the lead in the terrible Australian film Backstage.
The trade off for using a well known artist like Tozzi is that there was no LP or 45 release
related to the film.
According to director Michael Pattinson, composer Danny Beckerman contributed some
incidental music, which matched up to the Tozzi music that dominates the soundtrack. An
example can be found around the 1'20"26 mark in the Australian DVD, when Gino says
farewell to his school.
It would seem that this is the same Beckerman (also Beckermann) who would later score
the the Arch Nicholson thriller Fortress (1985) and then Nicholson's contribution to the croc
genre, the 1987 Dark Age.
But there were two Beckermans active in composing in Australia, and databases
consistently confuse them.
One Beckerman active in Australia was Danny Beckerman, founder and pianist for the
London band Fortes Mentum, credited at this site with all the above scores. This
Beckerman has a very affectionate tribute site dedicated to all things Fortes Mentum,
