I remember seeing "Meet Joe Black" in the theatre while fighting a cold and medicated to the eyeballs, which often makes me emotional. Thomas Newman's finale cue, "That Next Place," just wrecked me. I was a snotty, sniffling mess. Good times!

Every time I hear "Gondola no Uta" from Ikiru, I almost weep.
I did weep when I heard the end credits music from Close Encounters live at the John Williams birthday concert

Superman: The Movie, The Planet Krypton climax....because I realized I’d never be able to write anything that good.
Seriously, I think it was the ET closing, which is downright operatic. The build into that fanfare followed by the final statement of the theme is masterful, making the scene on the whole unforgettable. You just knew JW had the Original Score Academy Award in the bag.
I agree Horner’s scores have affected me similarly, namely the reunion scene in The Journey of Natty Gann and the end of Field of Dreams (when Ray meets his father John as a young man). Another one, the preparation for battle scene in Glory when building orchestra abruptly transitions to boys choir and soft low strings. Beautifully staged scene, the scoring of which JH, IMO, absolutely “nails.”
