Welcome Mina Rhodes!
Another reviewer for Soundtrackgeek.com. Read her intro below and read the exciting and comprehensive review of Alien³ tonight!
Mina Rhodes was far too young to be watching Alien 3 when she did, and she watched it many times! Still a good few years off reaching double figures, repeat viewings of the unholy union of David Fincher’s imagery and Elliot Goldenthal’s score was to have a profound effect, and a soundtrack geek was born.
Nowadays her love for that score is still unlike any other; its effects on her are as longstanding as those it had on the film scoring landscape upon release. Being a soundtrack geek also brings with it the frustration of the film score community’s general ignorance regarding her favorite composer, Kenji Kawai. If you’re reading this and have no idea who she’s talking about you soon will!
Besides Goldenthal and Kenji, she is also a huge fan of:
Philip Glass, Angelo Badalamenti, Wojciech Kilar, Michael Nyman, Trevor Jones, Mychael Danna, Alexandre Desplat, Ko Otani, Jerry Goldsmith & Alberto Iglesias
Her all time top ten scores are:
“AVALON” by Kenji Kawai
“Alien³” by Elliot Goldenthal
“The Hours” by Philip Glass
“Bram Stoker’s Dracula” by Wojciech Kilar
“The Piano” by Michael Nyman
“The Dark Crystal” by Trevor Jones
“Angel’s Egg” by Yoshihiro Kanno
“Birth” by Alexandre Desplat
“Rosemary’s Baby” by Krzysztof Komeda
“The Rapture” by Thomas Newman
