What would have been "not predictable" here? If Williams had scored it all for an electric guitar, panflute, and a Mongolian throat-singer? Mr. Mullin wins quote of the week, and I had to try his suggestion: http://soundcloud.com/contactflashfilms/predictable I thought "Lincoln" was scored perfectly, and beautifully. I loved the way the score took a backseat to the dialogue, which was the heart of the drama here, and they often played long scenes with nothing more than characters speaking accompanied by an off-camera clock, or by Lincoln's pocket-watch, which was like his ticking conscience. When the score came in, it had that much more resonance. I agree with Dogplant but have to admit, he is a great friend of mine.

I think this score may be my favourite JW soundtrack of the new millennium. It's certainly in the Top 5 category. I've rarely met a John Williams score I didn't get along with and this one and me are besties!

I've read that Williams composed around 90 minutes of music for the film, for use here, there or otherwise. There's just under 1 hour on the CD, but I remember there being very little in the film. Does anyone know how much music score there is actually IN THE FILM? Just get the FYC, assssssssssss

Thanks Jason. Pi$$ Off Shaun. Hahaha I love this score but the one theme always reminds me of A Bug's Life (because it's Newman, it's likely that it's Copland and I just don't know enough). Also, the one track that sounds like a Walt Disney Home Video rewrite of The Patriot is just awful. Luckily I'm given the tools to remove it!
