In 1985, Tangerine Dream wrote the music for Heartbreakers, photographed by Michael Ballhaus and directed by Bobby Roth, starring Peter Coyote, Nick Mancuso and Carole Laure. It was the first of six movies directed by Bobby Roth that Tangerine Dream supplied the music for.
The soundtrack album was released only in Germany by Virgin in summer 1985 and became one of the rarest items for TD collectors after it went out of print a few years later.
Re-Releases
If there was a prize for the most tasteful record cover, the re-release of Heartbreakers by the Silva Screen label in 1995 probably would not win it. But this was the only disadvantage of that reissue -- the more important thing is: Silva Screen had done a good job by making this soundtrack available after the Virgin CD had become exorbitantly expensive.
