Frantic is a 1988 neo-noir mystery thriller film co-written and directed by Roman Polanski and starring Harrison Ford and Emmanuelle Seigner. Ennio Morricone composed the film score. Although a commercial failure, the film was a critical success, and has since gone on to become something of a cult classic, with Morricone's score being hailed as one of his best.
