In 1990, director Warren Beatty hired Danny Elfman to score his film Dick Tracy, based on an old comic books series created decades earlier. The film tried to emulate the great film noir of the earlier 1900's, and Danny Elfman wrote a score appropriate for that setting. Elfman had just completed the score for Tim Burton's 1989 Batman, which has a similar feel to what he did with Dick Tracy.
The album was nominated for 'Best Instrumental Composition Written for a Motion Picture or for Television' at the 1991 GRAMMYS.
