Lost in Postulation is back for an eighth installment after a three week hiatus! We kick things off with Nicola providing a brief update and key takeaways from his recent travels to the end of the earth (1:20) before getting into our main postulation block of the episode about music in film (7:50).We dive deep on film scores from every angle starting by placing them within their historical context (10:45), discussing 'The King of Themes' John Williams (14:45), Howard Shore's impact on Lord of the Rings (17:23) and some of our other favorite themes (20:55). It's then on to composer postulations where we rate Hans Zimmer (33:00), give credit to Ennio Morricone (39:20), sprinkle in some Hitchcock (44:00) and discuss an interesting new composer trend (46:30).We wrap things up by diving into our listener mailbag where we receive global postulations on the topic of saunas (49:24).As ever, you can connect with us through our brand-new twitter account @InPostulation and via email [email protected].
