Author	Topic: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

TimT Standard Userer	Anyone knwo what the music in the trailer is from? I can only find the Spanish version of the trailer. But the trailer opened on the new Indiana Jones movie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqvVD6HQqyM&feature=related Oh yeah and whoes scoring it, imdb is'nt mentioning anyone. From the director and producers other films, I'm guessig Howard Shore. EDIT: I just found out its being scored by Alexandre Desplat. [Message edited by TimT on 05-29-2008]

Bond1965 Standard Userer	The music in the trailer is Camille Saint-Saëns' "Carnival of the Animals." It's actually the piece called "The Aquarium." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnival_of_the_animals It was used to great effect in DAYS OF HEAVEN. You can sample that track here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000V6M6D2/ref=dm_mu_dp_trk7?ie=UTF8&qid=1212077477&sr=8-2 James [Message edited by Bond1965 on 05-29-2008]

Crono/Kyp Standard Userer	Yeah, the music, I swear I've heard it else where before. Really good stuff. This movie looks insane. Fincher rules. --Brian [Message edited by Crono/Kyp on 05-29-2008]

franz_conrad Standard Userer	Was it also used in BADLANDS? I don't remember that. It was definitely used in DAYS OF HEAVEN.

nuts_score Standard Userer	Whoops, I was wrong. I'm trying to recall the piece that plays in Badlands as Sheen and Spacek take refuge in their fortifide treehouse as the bounty hunters begin to surround them. I confused them.
