JJA 19 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Two excellent examples of Film Noir, easily compared with each other due to various similar plot elements. Which score or film do you prefer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 7,490 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 DOUBLE INDEMNITY wins both. Great film, classic score. I quite like the BODY HEAT soundtrack -- even as one who is generally critical towards Barry -- but I can't remember anything of the film (I know that I've seen it years ago).

TheUlyssesian 2,477 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Both films are classics and superb. And both scores are great. I remember bits of both scores. But I will go with Body Heat for score. It's main theme is just outstanding. It is just dripping with sultriness, seadiness and lust. It is so fitting. I would say this theme is definitely a bit of precursor for themes from similar sex films like Goldsmith's Basic Instinct and Anne Dudley's Elle.
