publicist 4,643 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 But it isn't THE THING. It's really from LA PIOVRA, REVOLVER and LE MARGINAL, his mid 70's to 80's crime thrillers.

If it takes Tarantino to make them famous, i'm not opposed. Yeah, it sounded a lot closer to what little I've heard of that era of Morricone. I'm not sure if this is really new territory for the composer, but I'll take it over Williams' now-confirmed "Rey's Theme"!Speaking of which, I really do need to get more familiar with his body of work.Okay now that's stuck in my head.The creepy bassoons yes.Indeed.

karelm 2,915 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I don't understand how Birdman gets disqualified yet Hateful Eight goes through unscathed. And they did the same to Innaritu again with The Revenant!Because of this rule: “Scores diluted by the use of tracked themes or other preexisting music, diminished in impact by the predominant use of songs or assembled from the music of more than one composer shall not be eligible.” and the music is supposed to be original and composed specifically for the film through a discussion between the creative team (director and composer). The point is to prevent dilution of soundtracks being filled with songs not written for the films but used to bolster the feeling of being in a certain place and time. This isn't scientific where if 30% of the score is pre-existing then the score is ineligible but they listen to the importance of the pre-existing music in terms of the story and creative direction of the film and decide based on that if the score is eligible. So it's possible that one film has 30% pre-existing music and qualifies for oscar consideration and another score 25% and does NOT qualify because of how important a role the pre-existing music ultimately served. In short, it is clearly a judgement call made by the music branch and not a science. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,373 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I honestly didn't really think about it before they were announced.I just hope it was deemed ineligible because they decided it used too much Shifrin and Turandot, and not that it was simply not submitted by Paramount.For example, Jupiter Ascending didn't make the short list, and that's fully original. So someone must have chosen not to submit that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkissimo 1,973 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I love the acoustics too. It's dry but not in the plaster-y Giacchino sense. It's woody. You can almost hear the firs, pines and spruces of the Rocky Mountains groaning in chorus.My favourite track is Raggi di Sole Solla Montagna. A sort of ode to Italian serialists like Maderna, Dallapicolla and Petrassi--and Morricone's own roots as a composer. Dixon Hill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"L'inferno Bianco" is also great.The dry sound is fantastic, it gives the score a real edge. And makes it those low bassoons even more chilling.

nightscape94 965 Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Jennifer Jason Leigh was phenomenal, so I am thankful! For what it's worth, the overture was nice, as was the beginning. The material, what little there is, is a bit repetitive in the film. There isn't much of it. The movie isn't the type that leans on or requires much music.

mrbellamy 6,291 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 This might be Tarantino's most demented film yet. I loved it and yet it is thoroughly unlikable, intentionally so. Everything in that second half, yikes! This is actually the closest he's gotten to a horror film, at least in style and atmosphere. It essentially merited the 3 hour running time, though I'm sure many will disagree. Held my interest throughout, anyway, it's a slow burn but QT knows how to keep the fire going. And I loved Morricone's score. I agree that it's repetitive but I think that aspect of it really works to the film's benefit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy4 155 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I saw the movie yesterday and really enjoyed it. Music was great. More easily accessible than TFA (surprisingly) so hard to say which is better...but if I was I was only going on first impressions from the movie, morricone would take the cake. Which pieces were not original? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
