Lakeshore
Records will release THE INFILTRATOR - Original Motion Picture
Score on CD July 22, 2016. The album
features the original score by Chris Hajian (LADDIE, FIRST POSITION, THE
TAKE).
“I
wanted to create a very captivating score, and one that puts an emotional depth
into the film in a powerful yet nuanced way,” Mr Hajian recently said. “This combination
of 80s synths, modern ambient textures and string melodies is one that I
believe captures the time and emotion of the story and draws you into the world
of Bob Musella.”
Based
on a true story, federal agent Robert “Bob” Mazur (Bryan Cranston) goes
deep undercover to infiltrate Pablo Escobar’s drug trafficking scene plaguing
the nation in 1986 by posing as slick, money-laundering businessman Bob
Musella. Teamed with impulsive and streetwise fellow agent Emir Abreu (John Leguizamo)
and Kathy Ertz (Diane Kruger), a rookie agent posing as his fiancé, Mazur
befriends Escobar’s top lieutenant Roberto Alcaino (Benjamin Bratt). Navigating
a vicious criminal network in which the slightest slip-up could cost him his
life, Mazur risks it all building a case that leads to indictments of more than
100 drug lords and the corrupt bankers who cleaned their dirty money, along
with the collapse of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, one of the
largest money-laundering banks in the world.
“For
me, Chris puts tremendous heart and emotion into the score,” says director Brad
Furman. “Every time we have made a movie, the end result is a deeper,
richer, fuller experience with clarity of characters.”
