I thought his score really gave the movie a great energy and power and it was quite beautiful and touching. I thought it was truly an important and integral part of the movie and really made the experience of the film great for me. Morricone's MISSION is a wonderful and beautiful score, but my choice would definitely be Goldsmith over all the others. I don't agree with Hancock as WINNER for Best Original Score, but I never saw the movie and heard the music in the film, so maybe I should check it out, to prove I may be wrong. What do you think? What would your choice be? Thanks.    Posted:   Feb 28, 2020 - 3:23 PM     By:   Zooba   (Member) I love how Bette Midler announces Leonard Rosenman as being up for STAR TREK EYE VEE (IV) THE VOYAGE HOME. Here's Herbie Winning that night. You can see Goldsmith in the audience sitting right next to Hancock as he rises. 2:50 / 2:51 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Sqhj0XKTOw    Posted:   Feb 28, 2020 - 4:13 PM     By:   Spinmeister   (Member) I love how Bette Midler announces Leonard Rosenman as being up for STAR TREK EYE VEE (IV) THE VOYAGE HOME.

Zwar   (Member) As much as I like HOOSIERS, that year Morricone should have won for THE MISSION.    Posted:   Feb 28, 2020 - 4:29 PM     By:   Zooba   (Member) I love how Bette Midler announces Leonard Rosenman as being up for STAR TREK EYE VEE (IV) THE VOYAGE HOME.

Yeah, you can see Henry Mancini really good when Herbie is kissing that lady. (I guess his wife or date)    Posted:   Feb 28, 2020 - 4:32 PM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) Blue Velvet    Posted:   Feb 28, 2020 - 5:30 PM     By:   Bill in Portland Maine   (Member) I think it should've gone to Morricone. Exquisitely beautiful score, and it gave the film, which I loved even though it broke my heart at the end, immense depth and power. But Hoosiers wasn't worth a damn without Goldsmith. The action music, with the risky-but-successful use of the basketball bounce, gets the attention, but the quieter moments are equally essential, especially the opening scene as Gene Hackman drives to Hickory. In those first 5 minutes, you know it's a classic unfolding. Horner should've been nominated for An American Tail. A highlight of his career. -    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 7:09 AM     By:   adilson   (Member) my list of the best of this year after heard almost 150 scores, in this exact sequencial order: *THE MISSION – ENNIO MORRICONE *Highlander – Michael Kamen, Queen *Hoosiers - Jerry Goldsmith *Tai-Pan - Maurice Jarre *Salvador - Georges Delerue finalists: *The Boy Who Could Fly - Bruce Broughton *An American Tail - James Horner *Peggy Sue Got Married - John Barry *Crimes Of The Heart – Georges Delerue *SpaceCamp - John Williams special mentions: *The Delta Force – Alan Silvestri *Star Trek IV: The Voyage Of Home - Leonard Rosenman *Aliens - James Horner *The Fly - Howard Shore *Haunted Honeymoon – John Morris    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 7:10 AM     By:   OnyaBirri   (Member) my list of the best of this year after heard almost 150 scores, in this exact sequencial order: *THE MISSION – ENNIO MORRICONE *Highlander – Michael Kamen, Queen *Hoosiers - Jerry Goldsmith *Tai-Pan - Maurice Jarre *Salvador - Georges Delerue finalists: *The Boy Who Could Fly - Bruce Broughton *An American Tail - James Horner *Peggy Sue Got Married - John Barry *Crimes Of The Heart – Georges Delerue *SpaceCamp - John Williams special mentions: *The Delta Force – Alan Silvestri *Star Trek IV: The Voyage Of Home - Leonard Rosenman *Aliens - James Horner *The Fly - Howard Shore *Haunted Honeymoon – John Morris BLUE VELVET!    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 7:27 AM     By:   adilson   (Member) my list of the best of this year after heard almost 150 scores, in this exact sequencial order: *THE MISSION – ENNIO MORRICONE *Highlander – Michael Kamen, Queen *Hoosiers - Jerry Goldsmith *Tai-Pan - Maurice Jarre *Salvador - Georges Delerue finalists: *The Boy Who Could Fly - Bruce Broughton *An American Tail - James Horner *Peggy Sue Got Married - John Barry *Crimes Of The Heart – Georges Delerue *SpaceCamp - John Williams special mentions: *The Delta Force – Alan Silvestri *Star Trek IV: The Voyage Of Home - Leonard Rosenman *Aliens - James Horner *The Fly - Howard Shore *Haunted Honeymoon – John Morris BLUE VELVET! for me it is among the 20 best of the year.    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 8:02 AM     By:   shureman   (Member) Sword of Gideon (Delerue)    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 8:22 AM     By:   Justin Boggan   (Member) I have to go with "The Mission".    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 10:27 AM     By:   No Respectable Gentleman   (Member) HOOSIERS the most effective score though a little in-your-face for the Academy, so THE MISSION for its majestic and beautiful themes. Certainly not ROUND MIDNIGHT.    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 11:31 AM     By:   The Mutant   (Member) How many years later and does anyone care about the Round Midnight score? Nope. Oscars are pretty meaningless.    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 11:35 AM     By:   Stephen Woolston   (Member) THE MISSION. It was robbed.    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 11:51 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) TOP GUN    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 11:57 AM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) It's a toss up between THE MISSION and HOOSIERS/BEST SHOT for me. But how do you even TRY to compare those two scores!! It's a joke. And AN AMERICAN TAIL & THE BOY WHO COULD FLY, two of my all time favourite scores not even mentioned!!! (and I love Spacecamp, Highlander and Peggy Sue too). And yeah BLUE VELVET, if only for that gorgeous Mysteries Of Love song/melody. But it's the Oscars. They're all just a fkn bunch of nonces.    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 3:05 PM     By:   Advise & Consent   (Member) They're all just a fkn bunch of nonces. Bingo! He said, as he ran for cover from the wrath of PandaMan (TM).    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 3:51 PM     By:   Zooba   (Member) Did Hancock actually write a "score". I always thought he just basically had a hand in recreating Jazz Standards for the movie. If he didn't write a score I think his category should have been for Score Adaptation or Music Supervision. It seems this one fell into that grey area where the voters just liked the music for some reason and kind of twisted the rules. I'd like to be corrected on this if I am wrong. How much of the music being honored for this film was actually Original to Hancock and not just Jazz Standards redone? Educate me someone. Please. I'd love to hear some of Hancock's Original "score" cuts from the film. Can someone direct me to them? Thanks.    Posted:   Feb 29, 2020 - 4:02 PM     By:   Hurdy Gurdy   (Member) I read he wrote between 10-15 minutes of connective tissue score tracks, between all the classic/standard jazz cuts in the film. It's obvious the voters were voting for the famous jazz stuff. I'd argue Anne Dudley's Oscar was awarded for all the strip/dance songs in The Full Monty. Nonces!! All of them!     General Discussion: Your Best Original Score Oscar choice 1986 Films    < 1 2 3  > >>  Go to page:  1 2 3   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3
