The Aviator

Resenha Amazon.com.br

Martin Scorsese’s energetic, visually wealthy biopic of billionaire industrialist Howard Hughes shrewdly eschews the unusual, cloistered existence of the enigma’s final quarter century to concentrate on his exploits as reckless inheritor, Hollywood playboy and record-setting aviator. The movie’s pop ‘n’ jazz oriented song-score colours its period and locales, however this wealthy, Golden Globe-nominated orchestral soundtrack by veteran Howard Shore explores the complicated emotional panorama of its central character. Using an orchestral palate that originally wends from the intense, neo-baroque promise of “Icarus” to the foreshadowing bombast of “Hollywood 1927” earlier than turning ever extra angular, trendy and brooding, Shore’s music more and more will get beneath the pores and skin of Hughes the person. It is a masterful symphonic portrait of an enfant horrible combating a dropping battle together with his personal demons, whilst he is conquering each realm he chooses. –Jerry McCulley
