There are also one or two short pieces that I would love to be included. . . the choral version of the music box theme comes to mind during the luggage scene.

I love my JvtV CD and all of the unused music it has. But one of these days I need to track down all of the songs that were used in the movie as well. What a delightful film. Twenty years later I STILL say "I have no response to that."

I have my iPod on random play of tracks I haven’t played in over a year. “Hava Nagila and When Johnny Comes Marching Home” just came on. I can’t stop laughing.
I really need to SEE this movie again.

Just rewatched it myself.
What a beautiful, enchanting, funny, touching, intelligent and absolutely well-made film.
And Delerue´s score is exactly what the movie needs.
Such an uplifting experience. I paid good money for this CD and I never regretted it.

It's a great film in basically every regard until, for me, they get to the island. That last act is a real WTF for me. It just feels... Wrong. Weird tonal shift, weird Deus Ex Machina ending that feels incongruous with the film's themes, etc. Still a really good and fascinating film, I just wish the last 20 minutes had resolved differently somehow.
This is the score in which I discovered Delerue, and it is still my favorite by him years later. The love theme is a wonderful, brilliant and rapturous creation, but I like even MORE the incredibly lyrical, vitality-infused, soaring main theme - You know, the triplet-laden one that opens and closes the end title cue with grand style. It's a simply amazing melody so full of whist, adventurous longing, humility and Golden Age Hollywood panache. Love it, love it, love it!
