CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com Howard Shore revisits the thriller genre's enduring '70s jazz sensibility but brings to it his own modern, authoritative sense of impressionism. Centered around a simple falling six-note phrase, Shore's score weaves in some of Thomas Newman's polyrhythmic adventure and leaves just enough room for his master session men to color the proceedings with some moody soloing. It's a score whose deceptively straightforward demeanor masks some intriguing, dark corners as it steadily builds its sense of pervasive tension: the deliciously cool, yet distinctly uneasy musical underpinnings of the film's story and characters. --Jerry McCulley Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsThe score on the score William J McMillan | Orange, CA United States | 12/17/2001 (2 out of 5 stars) "Like James Ashby, I was looking forward to the great music played by the legends of jazz throughout the film. Unfortunately, that's not what I got. I should have read the CD closer, but once I popped it in the player I was disappointed to find that what was actually there was the score, which while entertaining, is somewhat repetitious. I doubt that I will play it again, and it's too bad the production company didn't think to capitalize on all the great music they incorporated into the film. Particularly Diana Krall's closing song. If you're buying the CD for the music heard behind the scenes in the film ie. Cassandra Wilson, Mose Allison, Diana Krall don't bother because it's not there." The Diana Krall Music Is Missing! Donald R. McMenimen | Greenacres, Florida, United States | 08/31/2001 (3 out of 5 stars) "I would have bought this CD in an instant if it had included the last song on the film, entitled: "I'll Make It Up As I Go," by Diana Krall. (I'm sure more than a few people agree that was a great song.) It's not on any of her previous work. The only hope is that she included it on her new CD, out Sept. 18th, as a bonus track." Where is the music? James B. Ashby | Chino Hills, Ca USA | 07/18/2001 (3 out of 5 stars) "In the film, the sound track on the CD was heard in the faint background, but the film was filled with good jazz, Diana Krall vocals and the like. Where did they go?"
