This film is my most anticipated film!! I honestly thought Malick would use a pot-pouri of classical music like he did with the creation scene in The tree of Life.

If what James Horner said of working with Malick, Morricone has my deepest sympathy (I don't think their collaboration on Days of Heaven went quite so smoothly either).

I really would be very curious to see what would John Williams write for my most anticipated film of the last 10 years! Maybe a new Close Encounters? I guess we will never find out..

I really would be very curious to see what would John Williams write for my most anticipated film of the last 10 years! Maybe a new Close Encounters? I guess we will never find out.. You mean if Williams had scored VOYAGE OF TIME? Yeah, I'd love to see that, although I don't think he would have fared any "better" than most other big time composers who have worked with him. Eventually, Malick WILL make his own musical edits and picks of things (which I love, btw). But I wish Williams had kept a link to some of the more edgy directors he worked with in the past. One can only imagine what the Altman/Williams collaboration could have spawned if it had been allowed to develop further, for example. In that respect, a collaboration with someone like Malick would have been intriguing. AMEN! Altman in particular not only pushed the envelope of cinematic storytelling but pushed his composers too. If the unfortunate circumstances of their split hadn't occurred I would literally be chomping at the bit to hear what Williams would have brought to 3 WOMEN, QUINTET, VINCENT & THEO, SHORT CUTS, THE PLAYER (the only one I think he couldn't top) and GOSFORD PARK? Then my mind drifts to if his Mark Rydell (who into'd him to Altman) relationship had been as religious as Spielberg's what would have INTERSECTION, HARRY & WALTER GO TO NEW YORK, THE ROSE, FOR THE BOYS or even the wonderful ON GOLDEN POND been like under John's baton? THEN my mind boggles if Williams had struck up a partnership with Don Siegel (THE KILLERS) what alternate road THE BEGUILED, DIRTY HARRY, TWO MULES FOR SISTER SARA, CHARLEY VARRICK and THE SHOOTIST would have taken? Which would have brought him to Eastwood. Of all my favorite composers Williams has the most unexplored roads. I really have to praise Oliver stone for taking him off the safe tracks briefly.
