Thor 7,508 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I haven't seen INDECENT PROPOSAL in years, so I have little to contribute there. However, TIBET is a pretty nice film. I've always been an Annaud fan -- he's so good at contemplating landscapes; there's a raw power in that that I don't find boring at all. And obviously, the excellent score is a major draw. There were actually TWO John Williamses involved on this film. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naïve Old Fart 9,534 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 @bollemanneke, SEVEN YEARS IN TIBET is a pretty-looking, but vacuous film, with a pretty-looking, but vacuous lead actor. INDECENT PROPOSAL has great photography, a neat Barry score, an interesting moral dimension, and Robert Redford. Nuff said. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried that a few times and it did go south more often than not. I saw Lady in the Water purely as JNH's finale music blew me away. That didn't go well. Although I watched Outlander as a result of finding McCreary's first score release. That went very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still find it worthwile to know such things, actually. For me, the best audio description tracks are the ones where narrators try to explain things like camera movements/points of view, shots etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,508 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 The best Annaud films are THE BEAR and THE NAME OF THE ROSE, but plenty of individual values in his other films too. The brownish, muddy photography in ENEMY AT THE GATES is gorgeous in its own kind of dirty way, for example. He always seems to get the best out of the composers he's working with too.

Romão 2,274 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Seven Years in Tibet is one of my favorite scores and I loved the book, but the movie is regrettably very forgettable.
