MSM 126 Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 The transformation has been remarkable. As late as the mid-nineties, Williams' approach was still very much in the Hollywood mainstream. Now Williams is no more than a niche composer.We do go through pendulum swings with this sort of thing, but I have a feeling the old-school symphonic style will be in vogue again about the same time short shorts return to the NBA.Remarkable indeed. Let's hope you are right. It all depends on the musical talent in Hollywood, but more even on the choices modern directors make. I hope Hollywood sooner or later realizes that movies benefit from a timeless symphonic score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricard 2,245 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 The movie will be released in less than four weeks and we still haven't heard a single note of John's score. I bet a new trailer with Williams music will be out this week, followed by the first exclusive samples provided by Sony Classical... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,714 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Apparently the German release date has changed to 22nd of November since you reported the news Jason. But I guess it might be still in flux as it is wont at Amazon before they get their final info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxfan 128 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 "The Book Thief" is still not listed on Amazon.com, but I found a listing on Amazon.ca (Canada) that has a release date of November 19.Sony Classical is really terrible at announcing release dates and generating hype for such a prolific release.

Are you really asking a question about the movie's plot or are you simply expressing your tiredness of the genre in question form? Once 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkgyver 1,645 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Both.Of course I know it's a movie set in Nazi Germany, but there is a difference between telling a story that is set in Nazi Germany, and telling a story about Nazi Germany, with the overdone message "dictators are bad". And yes, I'm indeed tired of Nazi movies in general. There is simply nothing more to tell in movie form that could be worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 4,651 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 In that case, I will go back to my original post. It is not yet another Nazi movie; it is about a girl and her foster parents and how a love of learning shapes her childhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
