5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic CD! Great Movie but the Book is Better!, September 28, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Hearts in Atlantis: Original Motion Picture Score (Audio CD)

Great mix of timeless tunes with just three original tracks written for the movie (these are very similiar to the Green Mile soundtrack) This soundtrack is far superior to the Green Mile, although, I like that as well. I just wish the Green mile had more of the older music from the 20's and 30's that was showcased in the movie (like this cd does). I really love this cd, even the original tunes written for the movie. I just got back from the first showing of the movie on opening day and let me tell you it was great! Had to hold back the tears towards the end. I really wish the movie portrayed all of the short stories that were in the book. They chose the first, which is excellent. Oh well, I guess the movie would have been way too long if they did that. I love Stephen King books in general and his movies hold true to the books. I cannot wait for Desperation and the Girl who loved Tom Gordon. My advice to all: get the book, read it right away, go see the movie and on your way out of the theatre stop by your nearest cd store and buy this cd! Stephen, I love you, the best to you and Tabitha and everyone else on your side!

It would not be necessary to see this movie to enjoy the soundtrack, but it is a wonderful, touching film.
We listen to the soundtrack very often.

Good soundtrack, good movie based on a Stephen King story. The Sinatra songs that played during the movie were NOT actually Frank Sinatra, they were covers,that may be why they are not included on this cd. I'm not sure who did the singing. I guess Sinatra didn't approve his versions for some reason, maybe they thought it was a horror film.
