Looove the sounds and chord voicings with those gorgeous upper structure triads. Sounds very similar to Brazilian composer/singer Ivan Lins. Sure enough Q would use his music "'Setembro" a few years later.

Saw this movie first time in the cinerama movie theater (best movie theater I’ve ever been bar none), Córdoba, Argentina, 1969. Was mesmerized, thought the movie could not have been conceived by just one person, that a huge team was behind it. Remember the complete almost religious silence of the audience. In those days-there- people didn’t go to the movies to eat junk food and make all kind of noises in the process. Thank you Stanley Kubrick!

I had no fucking idea this was Horner! Gods, I miss him.

I watched this miniseries when it was first on television in 1974. I was just 14 and really enjoyed it. I enjoyed the performances of William DeVaine as Kennedy and Martin Sheen as Bobby Kennedy. Their acting was both very realistic. They were the best choice. I still have the entire miniseries on DVD 📀 and just watched it for the first time in years. Originally I bought the video when it was first released but changed immediately to dvd 📀 Thirteen Days was such a disappointment and inaccurate. I wouldn’t recommend this movie but don’t miss The Missles Of October and Kennedy. I was just 2 when The Cuban Missle Crisis first happened and just 3 at the time of President Kennedy’s assassination.

I saw this at the cinema when I was 15 in 1968. Absolutely blown away, not only by the incredible story but by the effects which were so clean and realistic compared to other films of the time. The final segment in the hotel room is so clever as it steps through time and never looks back. Also the 'lighting from underneath' in the same scene, which gives a very unsettling feeling. One question - could you not have used a genuine orchestral soundtrack rather than the toy-sounding keyboard one?

I came here😢

If it had been up to me, instead of the aliens being rectangles, they would have been black, mysterios spheres floating silently in place about two feet above the ground but doing the exact same things that the rectangles did in the movie. Oh well. It is what it is...

Some of these are better than the movies themselves

U the man

heard a few words sung by Jack in the background of the film, "The Long Kiss Goodbye" at 32:56, and immediately knew it was Sheldon....so soulful and distinctive!! came here to hear the whole piece....so love his trumpet playing!!! 🎺💜

John Barry lives on. ♡

Since they're all working from picture, and the time is dictated by the picture. •Block out sections and label them appropriately depending on what's on screen. •Decide how to transition from one section to another. •Assign each section an emotion. •Come up with a lot of motifs and associate them with a character or event in the movie. •Create variations on them by inverting them, playing them back in different speeds. •Patch over the sections with music that is either carried by, motif, rhythm, ambience. And of course work within bounds set by music theory, intervals, scales, chords, key changes, syncopation, polyrhythm. Experiment with instruments, (most fun part because there are no rules). I don't know, but I suspect when a lot of the movie is done. There's a lot of copy pasting, because you already know the "theme" of the movie. So the (hard) part is likely the beginning of the movie, when you have to improvise together all the motifs and label each section.

Absolutely and totally fabulous. I recently saw The Long Goodbye on the big screen for the first time and I'd forgotten the song. It's one of John Williams' finest and the way it's used in the film - performed by various artists, such as a snippet on the radio - is fantastic. Up there with Nat King Cole's 'I'd rather have the blues than what I've got' from Kiss Me Deadly, which is in some ways a similar film. Though not as similar as The Third Man, which has so many thematic similarities. And both have fantastic theme tunes.

今回も添削ライヴ、とても勉強になりました。皆さん素晴らしい曲ばかりで驚いています。理論的な部分は難しくて理解出来ませんが、それでも色々と興味深くタメになります。 前回の添削ライヴで相撲をテーマにしたピアノ協奏曲を添削して頂きましたがその後も色々改訂した部分もあるので是非またガチ添削&動画化に申し込みたいと考えています!!　みんなで弦楽４重奏曲を添削のライヴ動画を観ましたがトイドラ先生の師匠で特別顧問の榊山大亮先生のコメントも大変興味深く面白かったので是非 可能であればトイドラ先生と榊山先生のダブルでの添削をお願い出来ればと考えています。また曲が長いので12000円に追加費用が必要であればお教え下さい。先着５名限定との事ですが是非 予約させて下さい!! 宜しくお願い致します!!

John Williams was cooking with this

everyone : Danny Elfman 😭 me : Patrick Doyle and Desplat 😫

This is the only thing on youtube about this movie. No reviews, no clips, no retrospectives. Somebody get on it. Give this movie some modern love.

Howard DeSilva had just played Benjamin Franklin with greatest wit and humour in the musical 1776, before this role as Russian Premier Khrushchev, and he just kicks butt all over again. From Founding Father to Russian leader, what an actor. What an actor!

This movie / play was brilliant. I was a little kid when I watched it and even as a little kid I was enthralled with all of it. I didn't get to see it again until the internet had it and it did not disappoint on rewatch. I have since watched it numerous times, and love every minute of the production, it must have been a whole different feeling for those who lived through the real thing though.

Im reading Sam Wasson's book on this now. Thank god they canned Lambro.

Este ceva fantastic

STRANGE THING: On both my DVD and bluRay there are artefacts in the skies, mostly left side, in the "dawn of mankind" sequence. About 10 - 12 minutes into the film. They look like some structure, texture... overlaying the bright sky? Can't find any explanation for them. It can't be the front projection. Kubrick would never have accepted this flaw! Can someone PLEASE comment on this? (Thanks from Munich.)

Come on, guys!!! 480p, still?? Please re-upload this!

why can’t I find this version on any music streaming platform?

wish this was on spotify

Es un placer escuchar toda la sinfónica. Es un espectaculo y sólo por verlo en una pantalla..😉

Why is this 43 minutes long, when IMDb and prime video listed as being 60 minutes?

The eagle eyed among us will notice Brue Willis as a Juror.

This comment section is full of bots.

Much thanks.... very thought provoking. Adding to ALL the concepts of "what it the movie means" re H A L; Power currups, absolute power currupts absolutly.

Ape man, bone accending... Rifenstall's "Triumph of the Will" divers accending... S. K. does IT again. 42:49

I don’t think HAL had an idea of self preservation. “He” had a mission to see through, a job to do. The only way to do it was to stay relevant. It wasn’t about “him”, it was the programmed mission.

I don’t agree that the astronauts that had to deal with HAL were machine like or robotic. I always thought of them as NASA types much like Armstrong or Glen. Unflappable and except for leaving his helmet behind, think thing’s thru kinda guys. This movie changed the matrix of the way I think.

Found it here. dvp-video-audio-archive.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-missiles-of-october.html

This is perhaps the best I have heard from John Williams - all his other mainstream megahits notwithstanding. Apart from loving the film and this track, I absolutely adore Williams’ imagination the whole picture throughout - as he plays with various versions of this song, now heard by Marlowe on the radio, then played by some piano player somewhere at the bar. Magnificent work

THIS GUY NEEDED A HAIR TRANSPLANT MORE THAN HE NEEDED AN OSCAR

Bret Easton Ellis was brilliant.

I suppose you think 2001 was more groundbreaking than Barbarella? (j/k)

❤❤❤

"If I take the money 💰 I'm lost" true 👍

Who says the monkey who first used a bone as a weapon was male?😮

Thank you for posting this great tribute to Jerry Goldsmith. I happen to come across this via KZbin Music the other day. I listened to it from beginning to end and was awestruck. Thank you again.

They don’t make ‘em like they used to

And yet they use possibly the shittiest midi approximation of Also Sprach in the opening of this video?
