If that sample is any indication, it's a hard pass from me. It's the scoring equivalent of adding raisins to potato salad. I wasn't fond of the score in the Kino edition, and I'm not holding out any hopes for this.

I love Buster Keaton. I love R.E.M. This is an abomination.

I am not a fan of hearing sung lyrics when I am trying to read the title cards. I am also not a huge fan of just " running some unrelated music" with the films. I understand that not every film can have an origional score, but this is way worse than the " needle-drop jazz".


This would be very distracting for me.
I love Sherlock, Jr. Ther are good scores out there for it- this isn't one.
