Released in October, 1985, HOT TARGET was a UK/New Zealand co-production. The screenplay was written by Lewiston and Gerry O'Hara. HOT TARGET follows Christine (Griffeth) who is the trophy wife of a successful businessman in New Zealand. Her seemingly idyllic descends into chaos when she meets Greg (Marachuk), a mysterious American. Their chance encounter in the park reveals a dark tapestry of deceit and ulterior motives that begins to slowly unravel, leading ultimately to a shocking murder. Mellé's score is a masterful blend of orchestral richness and electronic innovation, featuring vibrant jazz influences. Airing on television in 1984, starring Angie Dickinson, Paul Michael Glaser, Bo Svenson, Susan Tyrell, France Nuyen, and David Carradine. JEALOUSY is presented through three interconnected vignettes, each exploring the profound impact of jealousy on a woman's life. While two of the segments were scored by prolific television composer Jimmy Haskell, the first segment, 'Georgia', featured music composed by Gil Mellé, who also provided the opening and closing titles. Mellé's score is rhythmically captivating and beautiful, perfectly encapsulating the essence of Dickinson's dark fantasies.
