    I can't believe that SPR is your less favorite than let's say 1941, The BFG etc...

    A milestone in film music! Compare that Oscar Winner with today's Oscar winners.. (Sigh)

    No love for The 6th Sense?

    @bollemanneke maybe you should spoiler tag your post, in case someone hasn't seen the movie?

    It's more difficult surely for traditional orchestral sounding composers. Write a sound-designy score nowadays with expensive equipment, and you might end up getting an Oscar!

    A related film, again based on a Kazantakis novel, is the 1957 film, He who must die. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050237/

    Hmmmmm... I should watch that one too. I have it watched once many years ago and I don't remember anything. Easter is coming here in Greece in one week or so, and I have started watching biblical and other related films.

    A sanitized Hollywood version of the story of Christ. Spectacular, but I personally think it relied much on unwanted scenes like the two battles with Barabbas, the Roman centurion etc.. I think I prefer The Greatest Story ever told, and certainly Jesus of Nazareth. And of course, above all, I love The Passion of Christ, for the depiction of Christ's last hours. I couldn't understand in the other versions the degree of his martyrdom.

    Ah. Got you. I didn't get it the first time.

    Not to mention also the 2 tracks of the Hymn to Fallen.

    You've got a pm.

    What version of The Abyss would you prefer? https://imgsli.com/MjU2MjM3 the grainy one or the DNRed one?
  27. filmmusic
    Do you mean the score? Do you think it's a masterpiece?
  28. filmmusic
    Curious how Young ended up scoring this little film. Anyway, the music is quite ethnic and I'm curious also how the composer wrote such music. I mean did he study the music of the country or is he based on traditional melodies? There are many vocal tracks, and I wouldn't ever think that a Hollywood composer wrote these, if I didn't know.. I had listened to this fairly recently, and I can't udnerstand what people find in it. The Silence of the Lambs on the other hand, that's a masterpiece.

    No, to all three questions. If I admitted that SPR is a masterpiece of a score, then it wouldn't be fair for true masterpieces in my book like E.T., Hook or Schinldler's List. As for the film, I vastly prefer The Thin Red line, which was released the same year.
