On-screen: |
Title of the film |
Description: |
A four-note theme is played as we see the title of the film, perhaps to sonically match the words "In This Our Life" |
Music annotations: |
[m. 5] maestoso / melodia / sfffz / harpeggio; [m. 7] sfz |
Film annotations: |
[m. 5] M. T.; [m. 11] "Ass"-producer |
Orchestration annotations: |
[m. 5] horns + 1 trb / T. C.; [m. 9] horns (or trpt) + trb; [m. 11] brass |
Analysis: |
The opening E pedal tone suggests that the main title theme might eventually resolve to A major, but it is harmonically unstable overall |
