レビュー (Amazon) To orchestrate this semifictional account of the life of horror director James Whale, Carter Burwell attempts to capture a bit of the orchestral grandeur of Franz Waxman's original score to Whale's Bride of Frankenstein. But although much of the music fulfills Burwell's desire to echo the movie's themes of death, desire, and loneliness in a late-19th-century Romantic manner, there is something peculiarly modern about his final execution. Instead of shrill moments of romantic agony or passionate crescendos, the layers of melancholy violins and pensive woodwinds provide textures that are relentlessly counterclimactic. While it may lack surface excitement, the score reflects the psyche of the film's main character: a gentle but jaded man who is vexed by unfulfilled desire and simply wants to die. --Joseph Lanza 関連グッズ |
