Well, I had a new experience this weekend... going to see an Amazon movie in a theater. As we walked out of the theater, two things stood out to me about Hail Mary: #1 Ryan Gosling just did a 2+ hour monologue and was so good he made us believe "Rocky" was real. #2 The score MADE this movie. In my humble opinion, without the score, it could have fallen flat.
So, my question to you is this: What SCORE made a movie go from good to GREAT in the last FIVE-TEN YEARS?

One Battle after Another, score by Jonny Greenwood
What made this score special Tony DiGregorio ?
Maybe a reflective movie.
Interstellar - hands down. The movie was ruined by the casting - especially the lead, and the fact you can't understand a word he mumbles - but the music is the whole show. Then again, Notes On A Scandal was made all the more powerful by the Philip Glass's ethereal score.
Libby, I liked the way he built tension in certain scenes with a minimalist kind of melody and growing intense rhythm.
