Everyone has their favorite score from the early days of Varèse Sarabande. We get letters all the time from people who don’t understand why we haven’t released their favorite. This should take care of more than a few of those because we’ve certainly received our share of letters for this early James Newton Howard score.
Set in sunny Key West during a Fourth of July celebration, Russkies (1987) starred Joaquin Phoenix, Peter Billingsley and Stefan DeSalle as three buddies who sneak off to their secret fort and to their surprise discover a Russian sailor hiding there. He is Mischa (Whip Hubley), who with two shipmates was assigned to sneak into the town military base to steal certain computer parts. Unfortunately, a rafting accident left him stranded and alone. The boys eventually decide to help poor Mischa make it back to his home. |
