'...Dannie and Nancy were married on January 30, 1971 in Century, Florida by his uncle Reverend Harald Lowery. Dannie and Nancy were married 52 wonderful years. He had a love for music and was a talented drummer who played with local bands around Pensacola where he met Chec Chapman and the Checmates and played drums for him for about 6 years. Dannie was also an accredited Nissan Technician in Pensacola for 20 years. Dannie loved his family, his animals, Nascar, Wrestling, hot rods and a cold beer.'
Mondo Cane (a somewhat coarse Italian expletive,[2] literally 'dog world') is a 1962 Italian mondo documentary film directed by the trio of Gualtiero Jacopetti, Paolo Cavara, and Franco E. Prosperi, with narration by Stefano Sibaldi (Anthony La Penna provided the narration for the English-language release). The film consists of a series of travelogue scenes that provide glimpses into cultural practices around the world with the intention to shock or surprise Western film audiences.[3] These scenes are presented with little continuity, as they are intended as a kaleidoscopic display of shocking content rather than presenting a structured argument. Despite its claims of genuine documentation, certain scenes are either staged or creatively manipulated to enhance this effect.[4]
The film was an international box-office success and inspired an entire genre of mondo films in the form of exploitation documentaries, many of which also include the word mondo (meaning "world") in their title. The musical score by Riz Ortolani and Nino Oliviero gained considerable popularity outside of the film itself. Its main theme, "More", won a Grammy Award and earned an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song, and was covered by such artists as Frank Sinatra, Andy Williams, Roy Orbison, and Vince Guaraldi.

I saw the new Faces Of Death last week and in the scene where a guy explains what it is (because who under 50 has cause to know) he didn't say 'mondo' once....it bugged me.

the film More:
His [Barbet Schroeder's] feeling about music for movies was, in those days, that he didn't want a soundtrack to go with the movie. All he wanted was, literally, if the radio was switched on in the car, for example, he wanted something to come out of the car. Or someone goes and switches the TV on, or whatever it is. He wanted the soundtrack to relate exactly to what was happening in the movie, rather than a film score backing the visuals.
The soundtrack to the film was composed and performed by English rock band Pink Floyd, and consists of instrumental compositions and more conventional songs, such as "The Nile Song", which (somewhat out of character for Pink Floyd) borders on Stooges-like heavy rock, and a ballad featuring bongos called "Cymbaline", written by Roger Waters and performed by David Gilmour.

"More," also known as "Ti Guarderò nel Cuore," is the famous theme song from the 1962 Italian documentary film Mondo Cane. Composed by Riz Ortolani and Nino Oliviero, it earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Song. The popular instrumental, with a lush melody, became a standard covered by artists like More - Original Soundtrack From "Mondo cane" - Spotify.

The bass playing is hypnotic.
I'm no expert - but wasn't "Mondo" and "Faces of Death" interconnected, but not the same thing? The "Mondo" aesthetic included the original "Faces of Death", and that later became a separate thing (including any number of "real death" videos into the present). Plus, the original Mondo "Faces of Death" tradition included one staged scene in each film, right?
Wow, THAT'S historic! Never knew of an "Alexandria Arena" in Alexandria VA, but it was a roller rink from the '40s until 1986, at 805 N St Asaph St, Alexandria, VA 22314. Now an apartment building. media.alexandriava.gov...
