THE NEEDLE DROP: THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E
THE NEEDLE DROP: Master music supervisor Ian Neil chooses Peppino Gagliardi’s Che Vuole Questa Musica Stasera which he dropped into The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
Ian says - Another Guy Ritchie film for my latest Needle Drop of which I make no apologies as Ritchie is a director that uses music to full effect. And huge credit to the editor James Herbert here. He edits this with such great effectiveness and has the sense to pick one of the handful of songs I suggested for this scene. The casualness of Henry Cavill eating his sandwich and drinking his wine, listening to this tune while his partner is drowning, is such a great scene. The song has over 13 million listens now on Spotify - I am sure it was only a few hundred thousand when we selected it back then. So it’s always a true joy to see a song find a new life and new fans through a cool movie sync.
