The Addams Family
"The Addams Family" is an American film adapted from the Charles Addams comic strip, which also gave rise to numerous other creations such as a television series, a cartoon, a musical and video games. It relates the adventures of a zany, slightly macabre family living in a haunted mansion. Besides the originality of the script and the peculiar aura of the characters, it is particularly the soundtrack that contributed to the film's success. It was written by the American composer Vic Mizzy, who had composed Doris Day's hit "My Dreams Are Getting Better All the Time". Who has never hummed the tune of "The Addams Family", a piece that's recognisable from the very first chords?
