This perfectly catches the emotional nuances of the film and is a deeply satisfying CD to listen to. I have never looked out for composers particularly before, but I shall certainly keep an ear out for Rachel Portman again.
I believe it is simple elegance. The music is truly moving and the themes are beautiful. However, it is something more. It touches to the heart all the complex emotion, the love, the confusion, the excitement and in the end the acceptance and understanding of the deep and sometimes dark story of the film. The themes are All American. The emotion is universal.
For me, the test of a good film score is when it works both as an integral part of the film and can stand alone as an individual composition. In this regard, "The Cider House Rules" is a remarkable achievement.
