Free Music Notes for Finding Forrester (2000 Film)
Free Music Review: Great soundtrack from a great movie
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a great soundtrack from a great (and very atypical) movie. There's music from Miles Davis' electric era featuring people like Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, John McLaughlin, Dave Holland, Jack DeJohnette and many others. There's also music from Bill Frisell (his voice is so distinctive, I knew it was him as soon as the movie started and the theme music began), Ornette Coleman and last but by no means least, there's that beautiful version of "Over The Rainbow/What A Wonderful World" by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. The CD is worth buying for that song alone.
This is probably one for jazz lovers only but boy, what a collection it is!
Free Music Review: Fantastic movie and soundtrack
Hit: 5 Stars
I found the entire package wonderful, and Sean Connery does a good job of not overpowering Rob Brown's character.
The one song I wish they had included in the soundtrack that I found missing has been used in one shape or form across many movies (Badlands, True Romance, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants) entitled "Your So Cool" or "Musica Poetica," depending on which composer you reference.
This can be found under either Hans Zimmer when wanting "Your So Cool," or under Carl Orff when seeking "Musica Poetica." What a shame to miss this piece. It is referenced in the credits twice though, which is nice to give it justice.
Free Music Review: BEST SOUNDTRACK I'VE HEARD IN A WHILE
Hit: 5 Stars
IZ tune Somewhere over the rainbow is beautiful. Miles Davis songs are beautiful, and actually the entire CD is beautiful. The only reason it doesn't have 5 stars is because people expecting more popular fare were dissapointed. But if you have an open mind and want to hear new sounds that really take you to the best states possible by the artists on this soundtrack, buy the soundtrack. Buy IZ' cd later. You'll be glad you discovered ALL the great Jazz artistry on this cd. It is more atmospheric than swinging. It is more meditative than dance-oriented jazz. Free Music Review: Great Sound, great movie
Hit: 5 Stars
I think Finding Forrester is a great movie and the sound plays a main part in creating the cool atmosphere. There is a song in the middle of the movie that i couldn't find anywhere though. It's during the party after the basketball game, at the girl's house.
Sort of a deep flute tune. Anybody have a clue?
Free Music Review: If you want the track by Iz, by his album!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Instead of buying this album and getting a bunch of other songs you don't want, just buy:
"Facing Future" by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole
[...]
and get a whole CD packed full of songs that will touch your heart.
