Resurrecting this thread because TLG is free on Amazon Prime as of August 2021 & one of the last Jerries I needed to track down, to view. 30mins in and...d'ya realize this is really what Executive Decision was a remake of in 95? An early scene defusing a bomb/alarm made me run to my 90s Jerry shelf, to play that tense masterpiece later on. A great sparse & very effectively spotted wirk, so far. Excited to finally see this film, surely the score will see an album reissue one day - it's a cracking JG military work & maybe different tapes can be unearthed, although it's too early to play Unreleased Score Police (no main title either). Thoughts? ![]() ...and yes, I know he quoted motifs in this score again in Exec Dec, namely an ascending trumpet-bugle snare drum figure...which actually originated in Waxman's Objective Burma! IIRC? |

First, cheers Chris! I'm another semi-FSM alum from the old days & it's good to see you here. I was truly entertained by TLG, as I only had a (probably dismissive Jeff Bond) quote to go by. Maybe it's my era, but after watching this around the same time last month to the very static & dull The Satan Bug (similar stories in the same neighborhood), I'll take Twilight. I always loved the album & the spotting here is so subtle, the staging so taut...I was actually wrapped up in the drama for a change, instead of playing "what cues are missing & what's the film order!". Executive Decision is a great, almost anti-90s, action film - granted it lives in that era, but I think Baird's film coyly looks back to the 70s, and the score is a true slow burn. I love the parallels Goldsmith played throughout his work. Glad I tipped someone off on TLG, I never see it surface & the physical looks to be a funky region locked thing? |
