Free Music Notes for American History X
Free Music Review: As moving as the film itself
Hit: 5 Stars
As an Edward Norton fan, I already wanted to see "American History X." I didn't realize that Anne Dudley had done the score, so I was blown away by the first ten minutes (the shootout). The scene climaxes with an atonal string-shriek that further embeds that moment of onscreen horror (The Curb) in my skull. The choir gently raises its voices in defiance of the despair and rage expressed in the orchestra.Dudley's score most reminds of Bernard Herrmann's work for "Fahrenheit 451." Though not as animated, she brings similar pathos and tragic beauty to the compositions. There's also a touch of Howard Shore ("Silence of The Lambs," "Se7en")here and there. Where her earlier score for "The Crying Game" was more romantic, the music for "X" reflects the tragedy and sorrow of the story.
Some may find certain passages (e.g., "We Are Not Enemies") schmaltzy in a John Williams fashion. However, I'm a Williams fan. A good score communicates the director's intentions; while the images show us WHAT, the music can express WHY.
