5.0 out of 5 stars
A breathtaking little masterpiece.,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Kinsey (Score) (Audio CD)
This is a small score, recorded with only a handful of musicians and without the grand, sweeping scale of Burwell's most memorable work like Rob Roy or Conspiracy Theory. However, director Bill Condon has compensated for the film's limited scope by giving Burwell huge swathes of the film to work with. Many of the tracks are five minutes long.
It's rare for a director to trust his composer so much, giving over such sizable chunks of a film to music. The score unites the film beautifully, especially the opening sequence, and the music stands up just as well as an album. This is not huge, hummable "Star Wars" type film scoring, but lovely, tender romantic music for a deeply human and intellgent film. Every new score by Carter Burwell is cause for celebration and this is no exception.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Very moving,
By Karl Marx "karl__marx" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Kinsey (Score) (Audio CD)
Burwell's music has a sweep and emotional resonance that are much greater than you'd expect from the "small ensemble" of musicians involved. I found the score quite varied and, even aside from the film, to be involving and moving. He takes the opportunity to write music with a human "ache" that he doesn't get a chance to explore in his work with the Coen Brothers or Spike Jonze.
