Ennio Morricone, the Italian composer best known for scoring the likes of Sergio Leone’s The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and John Carpenter’s The Thing, has died at the age of 91.
Morricone passed away in a clinic in Rome several days after breaking his femur, according to the Guardian, who confirmed the death via his lawyer.
It’s difficult to overstate just how massive Morricone’s contribution was to film and television. His IMDb page has 520 credits, running right the way through from the early 1960s to the present day.
