L.A. Confidential (1997) - The Victor (ending) scene Screen Themes 2023-07-15 | This film manages to be a 'Chinatown for the 90s' in many ways, and probably enlisting the services of the same composer was a large part of that.

L.A. Confidential (1997) - Bloody Christmas scene Screen Themes 2023-07-10 | There so much excellent acting, dialogue, plot twists and class going on in this film, that Jerry Goldsmith's score is sometimes relegated to the background.

The Accidental Tourist (1988) - Macon Alone scene Screen Themes 2023-07-05 | Two things are made clear at the very beginning of this film: the main character has lost a son recently, and now his wife is leaving him. This scene is the 'stasis' period, after those two events, but before someone new and exciting enters his life. Montages are always great material for composers, the music being the element that ties everything together. This particular one also includes a dark flashback, so Williams reverts from playful piano to dissonance, and back.Starring William Hurt, Kathleen Turner, Geena Davis (in an Oscar-winning role) and Bill Pullman. Screenplay by Frank Galati and Lawrence Kasdan, based on the novel by Anne Tyler. Directed by Lawrence Kasdan, with an original score by John Williams.
The Accidental Tourist (1988) - Main Title scene Screen Themes 2023-06-30 | This respected, if not hugely successful, film manages to be a very faithful adaptation of Anne Tyler's excellent novel. One of the genius touches that Lawrence Kasdan employs is to use excerpts from the titular travel guide, in the form of narration, to add depth and detail to key scenes. This opening sequence, for example, manages to cover a lot of ground in under three minutes. Composer John Williams, in low-key mode for this human drama, bases his score about a single, simple theme, which which he manages to portray both the pathos and the eventual joys of the main character's life.Starring William Hurt, Kathleen Turner, Geena Davis (in an Oscar-winning role) and Bill Pullman.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988) - Toon Town scene Screen Themes 2023-06-15 | Composer Alan Silvestri has scored films across many genres.

Glory (1989) - How Many Are Left? (The Decision) scene Screen Themes 2023-06-05 | James Horner may borrow copiously from classical music when composing his scores, but the end results work perfectly.

This scene, although found in the middle of the film, has one of the most soaring pieces of music from the score, and in fact the cue was placed at the end of the soundtrack album. It's easy to see how the visuals helped inspire such a beautiful piece.Starring Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie, Ian McShane, Seth Rogen, Lucy Liu, Jackie Chan and Michael Clarke Duncan. Directed by John Stevenson and Marko Osborne. Original score by Hans Zimmer and John Powell, performed by the China National Symphony Orchestra.

Glory (1989) - After Antietam scene Screen Themes 2023-05-16 | I'm sure this scene worked very well back in 1989 - but now it's even better, thanks to the roles Morgan Freeman has played since then.

Directed by Edward Zwick, with one of James Horner's finest scores.
Glory (1989) - A Call To Arms (Opening Titles) scene Screen Themes 2023-05-11 | Sometimes a composer gently unravels their film score, building slowly and surely towards a climax.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988) - Judge Doom scene Screen Themes 2023-05-01 | This introduction used to terrify me as a child, making me now question the PG rating the film received.

Men in Black (1997) - Main Titles scene Screen Themes 2023-04-12 | Danny Elfman was nominated for two Oscars in 1998, one for his dramatic score to Good Will Hunting, and the other - which he should have won - for the quirky, propulsive and fun score to this equally fun film.

Written and directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert. Original score by Son Lux.
The Whale (2022) - Full Sail scene Screen Themes 2023-04-02 | Rob Simonsen named the tracks of his score as if the film is actually about whaling, and even the cover art for the album gives no clue as to the true subject matter of the film.

The Whale (2022) - Main Titles (Overture) scene Screen Themes 2023-03-29 | Rob Simonsen's score for this film is deceptively simple.
