"Sooooo many! When I was in high school I took a course called Music in Film (it was for those of us who couldn't make it in art class ). There are some crazy interesting connotations in the music chosen for films. One of the most interesting clases I've ever taken." That sounds like a brilliant class! It must be a really interesting job too. I'd enjoy Ligeia's input in music/movie decision making, I reckon she'd have some interesting choices. | |||

"Drive. The film was kind of meh, but the soundtrack is amazing." You already know I agree on this. Also, I've only just made the Gosling-Lib connection. *faps* | |||

"Hans Zimmer's score for Gladiator was amazing - beautiful music full of emotion and so apt for each scene in which it featured . It's very evocative if you listen to it on its own. But then he's an unbelievably talented composer." Oh, I feel I should re-watch/re-listen as the memory of the music is a bit faded. I shall be attentive as I do. | |||

That sounds fun, I studied film as part of my degree and music used was part of that. Also owned the top gun sound track for too many years But my favourite music in film moments Queen who wants to live forever - highlander - heartbreaking. Blow monkeys - you don't own me - dirty dancing Lauren wood - fallen - pretty woman This ones a bit of a cheat as not really a song in this sense but a classical/choral piece Fauré in paradisum requiem - copycat | |||

"I love subtle ones or the happy accidents. The character themes written for Withnail, for example, are so subtle and so fitting as is the use of already existing songs on the soundtrack. The placeholder classical (small c before anyone points out they weren't Classical at all) tracks used in 2001 that Kubrick just got clearance for in the end because he edited the scenes to them so gloriously there was no point in using the score he had commissioned. Recentish though the score for Dredd was cracking. Especially the requiem at the end. And I love how that came about (it involves YouTube and Justin Bieber of all things). I could go on all night about sound design and music placement in film. But I won't. " I could listen to you go on all night about it! You should do a seminar, I'd pay to come | |||

Yes, as a bookworm myself it's the whole package that I enjoy about films, how the cinematography, casting, music all beings the story of the book to life. I get what you're saying but it's more I view film as an audiovisual text. But that's maybe getting a little too deep for a sat night on fab! Regarding adaptation, well some work some don't. Rare for an adaptation to be well received. Part of the problem is that we often forget that our reading of a book is just that, our reading of it, the reader as editor and director kinda - just see how heated discussions on casting of well known literary characters gets - especially of comic book characters. Sorry - beloved subject of mine We should get a drink and discuss sometime, I'd love to hear more. Would love to - not been in London for yonks! But far for a drink.n a blether though Next London marathon ... Haha I'm way too unfit to run any marathons, but a friend is waiting to hear if he has a spot so you never know " To be honest I mixed you up then with the marathon running Evie on the forum! Sorry! I'm totally not a marathon runner either! | |||
