Thomas Newman - American Beauty Original Film Score

I had always heard your entire life flashes in front of your eyes the second before you die. First of all, that one second isn't a second at all, it stretches on forever, like an ocean of time...
For me, it was lying on my back at Boy Scout camp, watching falling stars...
And yellow leaves, from the maple trees, that lined our street...
Or my grandmother's hands, and the way her skin seemed like paper...
And the first time I saw my cousin Tony's brand new Firebird...

And Janie... And Janie...


And... Carolyn.

I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me but it's hard to stay mad, when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much, my heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst...
And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life...
You have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm sure. But don't worry...
you will someday.




melhor banda sonora de sempre!!!

Provavelmente, o meu filme preferido. Essa cena final é genial. Mais um post de classificação Incrível.

Também do Thomas Newman, e muito na linha da OST do American Beauty, adoro a do Road to Perdition (também realizado pelo Sam Mendes).

Thomas Newman para mim lidera o meu top 5 compositores com Ennio Morricone, John Williams, Bill Conti e Danny Elfman. No que toca as bandas-sonoras de TN prefiro sem dúvida "Shawshank Redemption" e "Road to Perdition".
