Product description

2003 SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT CD

Amazon.com

Director Tim Burton's adaptation of author Daniel Wallace's bittersweet Southern Gothic novel has been billed as his first mainstream character drama, a notion that conveniently ignores the story's inherent fables and flights of imagination. But composer Danny Elfman understands their every dark nook and murky cranny with this magical, often deftly understated score. While the epic melodrama of his comic book scores (Batman, Spider-Man, The Hulk, et. al.) have made him a mainstream Hollywood music star, longtime fans know that the composer's true emotional range is seldom tapped as well as it is working with longtime collaborator Burton. His music here bridges the delicate pastoralism of Rachel Portman and restless, rhythmic mysteries of Thomas Newman, seasoned with twangy fiddles and bowings to the film's occasionally Gothic turns and concludes with the deliciously loopy "Twice the Love (Siamese Twins Song)." Anchored by Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam's wistful theme song "Man of the Hour" and a half-dozen pop chart nuggets than span half-a-century, Elfman's work here (as well as Pearl Jam's) received a much-deserved Golden Globe nomination. --Jerry McCulley

    This soundtrack is such a beautiful score, by Danny Elfman. I am in love with everything about this movie, especially the musical score. There are also several non-scored songs on the soundtrack that are very enjoyable. If you like the soundtrack from Forrest Gump, you'll like these tunes. The scoring is similar to Danny Elfman's score of Edward Scissorhands (also a Tim Burton film). In fact, you can recognize a lot of similar sounds in the two scores, such as the choir accompanying the orchestra.

    If you like film scores and/or soundtracks, this is definitely one to add to your collection! And MOST DEFINITELY SEE THE MOVIE! It's brilliantly creative (based on the book, Big Fish), incredibly entertaining, and a heartwarming story.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect complement to a fantastic film
    Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2005
    Tim Burton's film Big Fish is a wonderful movie, and composer Danny Elfman's Oscar-nominated score complements it beautifully. Elfman's music is very understated in the movie, and it wasn't until I listened to the film's soundtrack recently that I realized how hauntingly beautiful his music is.

    Elfman's music is perfect for Burton's magical film about the larger-than-life character of Edward Bloom. Mystical, whimsical, and eerie at times, the score takes you deep into the weird and wondrous world of the character. The emotional "Sandra's Theme" is one of the best pieces of music on the soundtrack, and the jazzy number "Twice the Love" (the Siamese twins' song) closes out the CD with a bang.

    The soundtrack is mostly instrumental, with the exception of the first seven tracks. These tracks are an eclectic mixed bag of music, featuring artists ranging from Pearl Jam to Buddy Holly to Elvis Presley. The real gold on this particular CD, though, is Elfman's music.

    Even if you haven't seen the film (and you should; it's wonderful), if you enjoy quality instrumental music, I highly recommend picking up a copy of this soundtrack.

    No esta mal, en la película aparecían canciones, no me esperaba que en el CD también las pondrían, con lo que hay casi más canciones que ni fu ni fa que música original. Pero la que hay es muy bonita.

    この映画は、T.バートン監督の独自な作品の中においても、
    とくに、奇妙で、不思議で、なにより美しい感動のある作品です。

    そんな魅力的な映画の内容に、
    少しも劣らない素晴らしいサウンドトラックです。

    どこか不思議で、どこか放牧的で、
    どこか切なくもあり、そしてどこか美しい、
    D.エルフマンのオリジナル・スコアは、
    この映画の世界の中にある冒険や感動を、
    見事に表現しています。

    時代を表すために挿入される、
    その時代のヒットソングも名曲ばかりで、
    それらを聴くだけでもシーンを思い起せると思います。

    この映画に心奪われた人は、DVD、もしくはBlu-Rayときて、
    次に辿り着くのが、ここでしょうか…
    そんな人にかける言葉はただひとこと、

    「迷う必要はありません」
