Your heart is aching already upon mention of those two letters. Ups famous/infamous opening, almost a short film on its own, entitled Married Life always tops lists on most tear-jerking scenes. While the content is incredibly sad, its the music that brings out the tears. The score is gentle, expectedly breezy for a film of this subject. It ebbs and flows with the emotion, featuring simple piano and string lead melodies. The title sequence has a cool jazz influence, but mostly it has a waltz-inspired style, though when they visit the jungle it introduces tribal rhythms. Its all as if it comes from the 30s, mirroring the period from which the films grumpy protagonist hails from. With its old time feel, its quite like an ode to classic Disney. Composer Michael Giacchino, who also wrote the score for Lost and Ratatouille, won an Oscar for his work here.
