 SoundtrackNet Review : The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
In The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio, we meet a much gentler John Frizzell who crafts American melodies inspired by both early 1950s rock and roll and bluegrass.
We are introduced to his devil-may-care theme in "Main Title", where piano, fiddle, guitar, bass, and acoustic drums come together to establish the rural locale and the unstoppable enthusiasm of Evelyn Ryan (Julianne Moore) whose talent with words and poetry made her a frequent winner of jingle contests from 1956 to 1963.
While The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio might not ring any bells five years down the road, it might be wise to remember it as one of the first Frizzell scores that established his voice and the shape of scores to come.
