Very nice work, Mr. Mutant. The evidence is piling up: Mr. Goldsmith wins overwhelmingly.

I personally find the Goldsmith to be the more consistent (and enjoyable to me) listen, but I do think the Isham has more variety. I like them both. Would be super interesting to experience the entire film with Goldsmith's score restored, to fairly judge it as a film score. Yavar

Except it was in this before it was in The Vanishing (and it’s also better in this, IMO.) Yavar

Goldsmith's score is definitely in a "singular mood" -- one of the things I actually really like about it, in fact! Your opinion is totally valid, and kudos to you for (bravely?) expressing it so well. We are a film music discussion board, after all... Yavar

Man, I know how unpopular an opinion this is but I just can’t get into the way Goldsmith’s score plays over the film. I said in the announcement thread that Goldsmith’s score almost played comic-booky or cartooney and I’m sticking to that assessment. For example, the scene where Pesci finds the corpse in the second clip is played far too cool by Goldsmith and his score doesn’t quite have the more serious, deft touch Isham’s has. And I concur with the post above mine: the “der der der der” electronics don’t help. I’m guessing we’ll see that Goldsmith’s rather samey score also sticks the movie into the rut of expressing a singular mood, something I again feel Isham’s avoided. Personal opinion, probably unpopular, but I stand by it: easy to see why it was tossed. Anyway, Mutant, THANK YOU for putting in so much hard work to do this for us. Key word: "opinion" and we all know how rare, special and precious they are.

The Public Eye was a pretty grim drama and I think Mark captured that with the hint of dark sadness he brought. I felt Jerry’s score made it too light. What cues in the Goldsmith score do you consider light, much less too light? To me it sounds like a very consistently downbeat score. I thought maybe the problem the director had with it was that it was too relentlessly dark! Yavar
