A little psychedelic, dark fantasy perhaps? youtube.com/watch?v=tyC6oJ2M…

One of the best scores flat out. If I recall correctly, he didn't compose to picture. He wrote a bunch of cues and handed them to Coppola to cut in as needed.

Works great ironically, too. Served me well over the decades.

One of Cruises’s best performances too. His fear is what really sells Hoffman’s menace. It’s rare to see Hunt that helpless.

Agreed. I’m 44 and still feel the urge to look away from some shots. Like the overhead of the guy getting dragged under.

This is FANTASTIC.

Con Air admirably carries on this tradition with the most insane song choice. youtu.be/e6zq0rRyiwk

That was pretty much my takeaway after reading Easy Riders, Raging Bulls.

And it works because of Silvestri’s unbelievably kickass music.

Endorsed. I had the immense luck of seeing an early screening at Comic-Con. It tore the ROOF off the place.

And never stop listening to its score!

Definitely picking this up. My Rifle, Pony & Me is my kid’s favorite bedtime song.

MASH on Hulu looks awful, especially the weird color grade. Thankful for my DVD box set (and no laff track). 🍸

The Ursa is so close to a perfect camera. But the shortcomings are getting worse as the years march on.

Wow. And I'm assuming specular reflections etc? I never would've guessed.

A someone who got the hell out of their film program and went to a much better one, it makes me happy to say fuck Emerson.
