Why do people responsible still put film dialogue on soundtrack albums? Stop doing that! Otherwise, not a bad score, even if it owes a lot to its predecessors, but not one that left much of an impression, either. I fucking hated that on the WotW CD. Not to mention Hannibal, Halloween 20th Anniversary and Star Trek II! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,713 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Stanley & Iris Deluxe Edition (including music from Pete 'n' Tillie) by John Williams: A lovely album of gentle intimate romantic music with two very complementary scores for Williams' collaborations with director Martin Ritt. The additional music for the former score is more than welcome dose of new variations on the thematic material and even some new musical ideas that diversify the score's presentations compared to the old soundtrack album. Chamber-sized orchestra with solos for clarinet, flute and trumpet further enhances the feel of intimacy and immediacy of the score and there are several little themes intertwining throughout this direct and lyrical little work. It is quiet music to be sure and while not absolute top-tier Williams it shows another facet of the composer's voice that is quite lovely and often overshadowed by the sturm-und-drang of his blockbusters. The second title on the disc is a previously unreleased 20 minute miniature score with a wistful love theme from which Williams draws all the musical material for the brief but delightful programme consisting of all the music composed for the film but of which only about half was ever used. This was a great surprise to me and I had not heard much of this music prior to this and am happy to say that the sweet melody Williams has composed carries with ease through the short work without every becoming too repetetive. It runs the spectrum from melancholy to soaring love to drum kit backed contemporary pop-feel of the times. The tune very much in line with Williams' more pop-inflected tunes from his few 1970's social dramas like Cinderella Liberty and he manages to write something between awkward romance and sweeping love affair that seems to perfectly capture the relationship of Walter Matthau and Carol Burnett in the story.

I think it is more than a decent score. It might be branching too far out of most peoples' Star Wars comfort zone though. And given the film I think ol' Johnny did very well.

Naïve Old Fart 9,491 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 You've hit the nail on, Inky; it is a step outside most fans' comfort zone. I do not own any boots, so I can only judge the score by its OST, and by what I hear in the film, and what I hear, I like. Btw, is the little descending woodwind motif heard as the cruiser emerges from the clouds, on Courascant, as it flies over the camera, also heard on Hoth? It just sounds so dammed familiar!

crocodile 7,980 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 AOTC might be the best structured score of the three. And we do get numerous setpieces in it as well, something bit absent from TPM, ROTS and TFA. Tale of a Lake by Panu Aaltio. A most excellent late (from my perspective) addition to the best of 2016 roster. Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
