July 3, 2022 Record of the Day

“Desire Under the Elms” was written by Eugene O’Neil and first published as a play in 1924. In 1958 it was brought to the screen with its story of greed, lust, and family betrayal. It was kind of like a poor man’s version of the Ewing family on TV’s, “Dallas.” Starring Sophia Loren, Anthony Perkins, and Burl Ives, the original soundtrack with music by Elmer Bernstein was released by Dot Records and worth up to $100.00 today. “Desire Under the Elms” is just one of the 10,000 soundtracks on our Soundtracks guide on CD. It lists the values for all movies, TV, and Broadway shows and is available in the left hand column.
