DEEPER AND DEEPER is an erotic psychological thriller that stars Emmy-winning actor DAVID LAGO as a young man who falls for a seductive businesswoman and begins spying on her, only to have his stalking campaign take a turn for the worse—in more ways than one. The film’s director, MARIUSZ KOTOWSKI, has a distinct directorial style that is part European, and part Golden-era Hollywood director projecting into the current day. Kotowski is a lifelong fan of the movies of Alfred Hitchcock and Henri-Georges Clouzot, and with DEEPER AND DEEPER, Kotowski pulls the viewer into the same suspenseful, uncertain world, to the point that it’s hard to tell where the menace is coming from or who the real villain is. Underscoring this tale of infatuation and voyeurism gone bad is a lush but also slightly twisted orchestral score by composer RICK DEJONGE, which is presented on this CD soundtrack. If you are a fan of composer RYUICHI SAKAMOTO (Yellow Magic Orchestra), DeJonge’s score has the same satisfying depth, velvet touch, and thinking man’s sophistication as Sakamoto’s orchestral works, such as his FEMME FATALE (2002) soundtrack and his work on David Sylvian’s album SECRETS OF THE BEEHIVE (1987). DEEPER AND DEEPER’s score also has a lot in common with the calmer moments of Danny Elfman’s soundtracks. The instrumental pieces are punctuated with jazz and big band-influenced vocal tracks featuring singers Sydney Barrosse and Mandy Lauderdale. Kotowksi’s next film is called HOTEL PARADISE and will star MARGARET O'BRIEN, the Academy Award-winning actress best known for her roles in JANE EYRE (1943), MEET ME IN ST LOUIS (1944), and LITTLE WOMEN (1949).
