Two For The Road (film) - Soundtrack

Soundtrack

Henry Mancini's notes on Two for the Road from the "Music from the Films of Audrey Hepburn" CD booklet:

Charade was followed in 1967 by Two for the Road, another Stanley Donen film, this time with screenplay by Frederic Raphael. To illustrate the graciousness of the lady, the following is a telegram she sent to me:

Dearest Hank: Please won't you do the music for Two for the Road, the Stanley Donen picture I am now doing with Albert Finney? It is the best script I have ever had, wonderfully tender, funny and romantic. Can't imagine anyone else but you scoring. I am at Hotel La Pinede Saint Tropez, France. All my love to you both. Audrey.

Of course I accepted. Leslie Bricusse added lyrics to the theme. The song is my personal favourite among the music I have written for films.
