Fancyarcher 350 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Hopefully this has a lot of vintage "Victorian mystery music", or whatever it's called. I always like that kind of music, though I've only heard it in a few films. 43 minutes ago, Disco Stu said: Zemeckis & Silvestri! Come on!

Thor 7,463 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Really looking forward to this, as it seems right up Doyle's alley. I hope to see the movie in a 70mm screening later this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,463 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Hmmm...after one listen-through, I'm rather disappointed. Not at ALL what I had expected. Lots of slow-moving, tentative chords, some slight "modern" percussive beats -- very little of the quintessential, "British", elegant melodies I had hoped for.

TheUlyssesian 2,473 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I like the main theme! It is nice. Though better expressed in The Orient Express than the suite where you realize there isn't much more to it. The theme is nice but the concert presentation in the suite leaves something to be desired. Williams always structures his concert suites so that they have a narrative and momentum... They build and build and then crescendo. This one kinda just goes on. But a nice little theme. Will play well in the movie over I am assuming numerous travel and landscape montages. Disco Stu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,463 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I don't hear much Newman in this. Rather, most of it sounds like bland thriller/crime music that goes nowhere. But there are definitely highlights, like the long "Justice" track (which at least HINTS at the wistful melancholy Doyle is so good at), the main theme, "The Wailing" and the suite, for example. I guess maybe there's a decent 30-minute prorgam in here somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo 3,709 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Pleasant is a good word for it I think. Irish Times gave it 2/5. He’s usually spot on to be fair to him but he can be harsh on something that might be 2 hours of good fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t have the right to compile a 30 minute version . This again. I should make a FAQ out of this. I've never ever claimed that a composer-produced album automatically is immune to criticism. I only require that some thought has been put into "listening purposes" in the first place, and then I'll evaluate it from there. In this case, I don't think the score is strong enough to warrant the running time. And the sequencing could have been better. When there's a C&C only, or when the "listening-produced" album is not my liking (like in this case), I try to make my own playlists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you don't feel the score is strong enough to warrant the running time... I'd probably agree with you in a lot of cases. But it doesn't mean Doyle didn't put thought into the album; it just means he had a different idea to you. You've got to deal with the problem in the same way others do - identify the bits that aren't working for you and remove them. I can't see how it can be argued that that's the composer's job - how do they know what you will find interesting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheUlyssesian 2,473 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Saw the film on a flight. Wonderful score. The main train theme is a lovely if slightly cloying adventure theme. Lots of landscape shots for the theme to unfurl in full concert presentation. Magnificent. The real killer though is the Armstrong family theme. Wasn't prepared for the emotional impact it has in the film. The melody was haunting me kept coming up in my head for an entire day afterwards. This is an example of a very well scored movie with memorable themes. Bravo! Pieter Boelen and toothless 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
