Popular Post GerateWohl 4,377 Posted December 19, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2023 Wodka motion picture score by Joby Talbot and songs by Neil Hannon. Definitely worth checking out. Hannon's songs are great as always. JNHFan2000, Jurassic Shark, mstrox and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JNHFan2000 2,969 Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 I agree! Songs are great, especially A World Of Your Own. Both music lyrics and the accompanied scene are pretty magical. And I love how Talbot incorporates the melodies of the songs as actual themes and motifs. I feel that in musicals that really should be the way, and unfortunately since the Disney Renaissance this doesn't really hapoen anymore. So I was overjoyed to hear it down so well here. One of my favorite film related albums of the year! Once and GerateWohl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quppa 117 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Hannon and Talbot (and writer/director Paul King) were on Edith Bowman's Soundtracking podcast recently. I haven't listened beyond what was in that episode, but the Bricusse/Newley Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory score is a childhood favourite and I'm glad it's referenced.

Naïve Old Fart 9,554 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I like Talbot's work on THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JNHFan2000 2,969 Posted January 13 Popular Post Share Posted January 13 Just saw the film again. Loved it again! Songs and score are soo good! There actually were quite a few score cues I noticed that were unreleased that I wish weren't. It's mostly variations on the themes but the way Talbot uses all of them together and in tandem is really impressive.

bollemanneke 3,352 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Yeah I'm missing a bagpipe-led variation on the theme that you hear whistled in track 2. And they shouldn't have eliminated the dialogue in the Oompa Loompa song. Expansion, please! JNHFan2000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
