@Jay Just so you know, fake italics that use special characters do not play well with screen readers and therefore render the website hard to read for people with disabilities.

Other than that, can't wait to read that book!!

That theme has stuck with me since I saw the movie two days ago. It really nails the feelings of inevitability and melancholy. Very well done.

I'm still hoping Apple renews Home for a 3rd season.

LARGO WINCH is decent. It's on my list of Desplat scores I'm going to give another chance after my recent walkthrough of his career.

BTW do we know if Desplat will score Largo Winch 3 ?

In the minority? I didn't know that because Lost and Found is almost my favorite cue of the score.

This is getting ridiculous. I wonder how long before directors or actors start insisting on a “you will release this movie when it’s finished” clause in their contracts (admittedly hard to enforce). I love the quote “We have tremendous respect for the filmmakers, casts and crew, and are grateful for their contributions to the film.” No. You have fuck all respect for any of them if this is how you act.

If anyone’s been watching Heart of Stone on Netflix, beware. It sounds like that things was so heavily temped with Inception it’s sometimes laughable :/ .

Around 2:00 this is Mombasa:

Water Ballet has me wondering what kind of bugs are crawling and racing while Jones tries to escape them hahaha. Haven't seen the movie so I could be hilariously wrong of course.

I guess I'll continue to listen to this until the album is released here

Saw the movie on Monday.

If I had to compare the score to any of the previous parts in the series, I'd pick "The Last Crusade". There was also really one leading new theme (Grail) and the compelling action music that dominated the score. There is even more of it here. Helena's Theme we hear more often in the film itself in adventure arrangements (that are really great) than the one we know from last concerts. It's only in its full "Golden Age" glory during the end credits.

But there is a lot going on here, it is dynamic and dense, because there is no shortage of action in the movie. There are also some musical surprises. In one of the scenes I heard something that would fit to "Dirty Harry" or "Bullitt" or other Shiffrin's scores form 70's. Very unusual for Williams. There's another theme, more exotic, similar to "Tintin". And a lot of "Raider's March" and twice

"Marion's Theme"

The music is very intense, just like "The Last Crusade" mixed with "Tintin". And sometimes it rushes like "The Lost World". The music accompanying action scenes, with motifs accompanying the antagonists, is very intense and the whole score is very "busy" , if I may use such a word. Williams had a lot to do here. And must have had fun!

And there is theme related to the McGuffin - very simple one.

I can't wait to hear the score from the album and I have no doubt that it will be a great listening experience.

Williams and Ross are listed as conductors.

And the movie itself? Without giving away any spoilers, I really liked it. A lot of humor, lots of action, with a solid emotion in the background. There were moments that really surprised me. The biggest acting star here is indeed the fantastic Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

Can't wait to see it again!
