A beautiful score for a beautiful film

James Newton Howard has composed many wonderful film scores, but this is one of my all-time favorites. It has a kind of gentle but irresistable power, just like the film. And it takes its time, also like the movie. I like that quality in both the film and the score, although I know that others do not; many find it boring and annoying. Ah, well ... de gustibus non disputandum est, as the Old Romans used to say. ("Questions of taste are not debatable.") I really believe, however, that if most people slowed down and relaxed and allowed both this film and the score to tell their stories at their own pace and in their own way, they would be swept away by the beauty of both the film and the score, which are both exceptional.
