Ep. 13 - David Arnold's 'Stargate'
Sci-Fi, Music, Adventure, 20-Nov-2020
Enjoy the opening credits, composed by David Arnold, from this incredible film. According to Arnold, "when I first read the script for Stargate, I knew what approach to take, which was to be as big and bold as possible, [...] Every time there was an amazing sight, the characters would stand back and say, 'Oh my God!' But James would just smile and walk towards it. That was the basis for the Stargate score, moving forward with a sense of majesty instead of being frightened by what's around the corner."
