The latest CD from Quartet features the first release of the original score tracks for John Barry's music for Richard Lester's 1965 sex comedy THE KNACK (remastered from music-and-effects tracks), plus the cues from the original LP recording and a couple bonus versions of the main theme. (Barry went on to score Petulia and Robin and Marian for Lester; for the latter film, he replaced a more somber and classical score by Michel Legrand).


The latest CD from Caldera features David Shire's score for the 1991 TV movie SARAH, PLAIN AND TALL, a frontier romance starring Glenn Close and Christopher Walken, paired with Shire's music for its first sequel, SKYLARK (Shire's music tracks for the third in the series, Winter's End, are apparently lost).

DID THEY MENTION THE MUSIC?

THE ELECTRIC STATE - Alan Silvestri
 
"Unfortunately, one of 'The Electric State''s greatest pitfalls is that its emotional moments don't hit as hard as they should. For example, we don’t have enough time to get invested in Michelle’s relationship with her brother (undoubtedly due to the Russo Brothers letting Chris Pratt ad-lib with a robot for a good chunk of the run time) and thus, when that relationship is lost, we don’t share in her sadness. However, the movie's score and soundtrack help greatly to emphasize moments of both grief and hope. Alan Silvestri's score is unsurprisingly powerful, particularly during the climactic action sequence, and songs by the likes of Tom Petty and The Clash add to the film's defiant tone. Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch help our characters defeat wicked scavenger robots, and oddly enough, the most stirring moment of the entire movie is when a mechanical taco plays a soulful piano rendition of 'Don't Stop Believin'.' Overall, 'The Electric State' doesn’t hold a candle to any of its esteemed cast’s other films, but impressive visual effects and great music help it from being a totally pointless foray into the wasteland."
 
Shaina Weatherhead, Collider 

"If there’s anything else worth mentioning, it’s that the great composer Alan Silvestri is utilized. Still, his score, especially the last act, sounds like a bunch of discarded cues from the 'Avengers' films that are resurrected and recycled here -- terribly recognizable in how musically similarly secondhand they are."
 
Rodrigo Perez, The Playlist 

"That final act also sets the scene for an emotional catharsis of sorts that attempts to wring tears out of the audience, with an aggressive assist from Alan Silvestri’s hard-working score. But that would require some kind of emotional investment in characters that seldom get as far as two-dimensional. The actors are all game for anything, but this is thankless work, in which the mix of live action and animatronics has no magic. The same goes for the talented voice cast, which also includes Colman Domingo and Hank Azaria in small roles."
 
David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
 
HERE - Brecht Ameel

"Stefan’s quest is interwoven with Shuxiu’s day and is liable to be subordinated to his excursions through areas of Brussels where human construction surprisingly resides alongside pockets of nature. Both natural and constructed elements are lent an elegant beauty by the rich but subtle tones of the cinematography and the sparse score, mainly consisting of gently plucked guitar strings, underscores some of those quieter moments. Devos’s use of music intervenes just enough to set a tone but stops short of seizing the reins of meaning from the image itself."
 
Pat Brown, Slant Magazine
 
"In the microscopic patterns ShuXiu offers Stefan, and in the way these two almost-strangers are enveloped by a parkland’s rich green understory, Vandekerckhove’s camerawork is keenly attuned to the story’s synchronous planes, all of them in full, unannounced blossom throughout the film. Nature and science. Spirit and emotion. Mechanics and magic. The delicate tones of Brecht Ameel’s music and Boris Debackere’s sound design complete the quotidian-cosmic universe."
 
Sheri Linden, The Hollywood Reporter 

IN THE LOST LANDS - Paul Haslinger
 
"Paul W.S. Anderson’s fantasy action flick 'In The Lost Lands' has all the hallmarks of the pulpy B-movie maestro’s now-decades-old Resident Evil formula: ruins and industrial backdrops; loud electronic beats; maps, traps, and monsters; slow-mo and the familiar sight of Milla Jovovich floating with a weapon in each hand. Once again, we find ourselves in some kind of post-apocalyptic wasteland -- in this case, a bleak neo-medieval future where most of what’s left of the human race now resides in The City Under The Mountain, a squalid metropolis ruled by a decrepit, incontinent king and an authoritarian Church. Beyond that lie the Lost Lands of the title: classic “'There be dragons' territory, a sprawl of collapsed cities and abandoned power stations full of supernatural dangers and beasties. So far, so good."
 
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky, AV Club
 
NO ADDRESS - Steve Wingfield
 
"'No Address'' core message about community and resilience is powerful, but the movie’s themes are diminished by some questionable creative choices. Music cuts abruptly, sound effects are included sporadically and ineffectively, and one moment that should arguably be the film’s most heartbreaking is instead made laughable through a befuddling, jarring shot. Narration by Lauren makes the film feel tacky rather than poignant, and also further confuses things when it's unclear if she's talking to the audience, her dead mother, God, or perhaps all of the above. An overly sentimental score plays underneath most of the movie, making it feel more akin to a cloying PSA with Sarah McLachlan singing somberly in the background. The subject matter is serious enough as it is, but 'No Address'' heavy-handed approach to sentimentality undercuts any semblance of a genuine moment.
 
Shaina Weatherhead, Collider
 
OLD GUY - Andrew Simon McAllister, Mono Town
 
"The third-act shootout is the lone instance where there’s any snappy sense of rhythm coursing through the film’s veins, courtesy of Mono Town’s track 'Two Bullets,' which underscores Danny’s inevitable return to fine form. But at that point, very little is gained after sitting through all the anti-climactic hijinks. On top of that, the bifurcated score underlines the film’s identity crisis, oscillating between plucky guitar compositions from Andrew Simon McAllister better suited to a buddy-cop comedy and smooth, synth-heavy instrumentals from Mono Town that align more with a sleek spy flick."
 
Courtney Howard, Variety 

SEAGRASS - Oscar Vargas
 
"Specifically, this comes in the form of a cave down by the water that Emmy discovers with a group of other kids. One of them tells her that it is no ordinary place and that, if you look inside it while thinking of someone dead, they’ll begin to haunt you. As a disquieting yet understated score by composer Oscar Vargas begins to rise, we see the camera drift towards Emmy as she remains standing in place with this new information settling in. Even when we return to the tense domestic settings of dinners and putting kids to bed, the sense that there is something else there lingers. With cinematography by Norm Li, we then return to the cave as the camera begins to gently float out through the mouth and up through the woods before arriving back with Emmy. It feels almost reminiscent of something like the recent Presence while remaining much more ethereal and slippery. Indeed, the film is best when it keeps this element of the film as something less tangible and more uncertain about what it means. Seeing Judith comfort her daughter before, just moments later, looking rattled in the kitchen tells us that this is something that is increasingly having an impact on her as well."
 
Chase Hutchinson, Collider 

THERE'S STILL TOMORROW - Lele Marchitelli
 
"Cortellesi’s examination of Delia’s life follows a straightforward neorealist format -- black and white photography, period-appropriate music -- except when it doesn’t. Early on, as Delia leaves the house and walks to her first job, the orchestral score switches to American blues music. Later on, during a scene where Delia’s trying to escape her family, a needle drop of OutKast’s 'Bombs Over Baghdad' fits the emotion of the scene so unexpectedly well that it earns a solid laugh."
 
Abby Olcese, RogerEbert.com  
 
THE UNBREAKABLE BOY - Pancho Burgos-Goizueta
 
"If one scene finds Austin and Teresa dancing in their living room (mother and son taking pleasure in one of the only physical activities their bodies will allow them to perform safely), the next will invariably see Teresa sitting at the kitchen table and shaking her head at hospital bills under a blanket of sad piano music. The one after that? Maybe Scott crossing paths with a glinty-eyed stranger in the bathroom at church (producer Peter Facinelli), or having a heart-to-heart with the imaginary best friend he’s had since childhood (a gregariously charming Drew Powell). 'My dad is like Tyler Durden in "Fight Club"!,' Austin’s narration declares. 'I flippin’ love that movie!'"
