The Cardinal. Jerome Moross

Stephen Fermoyle (Tom Tryon) has grown up in Boston at the turn of the twentieth century knowing that his destiny lies with the Catholic priesthood. Finally finishing his studies in Rome, he returns to America full of certitude and ambition to one day join the College of Cardinals. But his road to that office is a long one, paved with crises. In Boston, he must decide whether to save the life of his sister Mona (Carol Lynley) or her unborn child, conceived out of wedlock. In Austria, he confronts the question of whether to remain with the priesthood or abandon his oath so that he can be with Annemarie (Romy Schneider), the woman he loves. In Georgia, he contends with Rome's indifference in the face of racial bigotry. And in Austria, he finds himself personally involved in the church's dealings with the Third Reich. One of the best Moross soundtracks and one of a handful of main themes blessedly married to a brilliant Saul Bass title sequence.As a matter of fact, the score is probably the best thing about the film. Jerome Moross had already created one of the greatest western film scores ever written, The Big Country. He’d also written scores for Seven Wonders of the World, The Proud Rebel, The Jayhawkers, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, and Five Finger Exercise, among others. For The Cardinal, he came up with a stunningly gorgeous main theme, and the other scoring is just perfection, music on a vast canvas, filled with many majestic and emotional moments.
