Synopsis

Bringing Out the Dead

An Easter story. Frank is a Manhattan medic, working graveyard in a two-man ambulance team. He's burned out, exhausted, seeing ghosts, especially a young woman he failed to save six months before, and no longer able to save people: he brings in the dead. We follow him for three nights, each with a different partner: Larry, who thinks about dinner, Marcus, who looks to Jesus, and Tom, who wallops people when work is slow. Frank befriends the daughter of a heart victim he brings in; she's Mary, an ex-junkie, angry at her father but now hoping he'll live. Frank tries to get fired, tries to quit, and keeps coming back, to work and to Mary, in need of his own rebirth.

The soundtrack of Bringing Out the Dead is a haunting and atmospheric masterpiece that perfectly captures the gritty, intense atmosphere of the film. The music enhances the emotional depth of the story and adds another layer of complexity to the characters and their struggles.

Michelle Moore

While I appreciated the unique and experimental approach to the soundtrack of Bringing Out the Dead, I felt that at times the music overshadowed the emotional depth of the characters and their stories. I would have liked to hear more subtle and understated melodies that could have allowed the characters' struggles to shine through without being overpowered by the music.

Overall, the soundtrack of Bringing Out the Dead is a powerful and evocative collection of music that elevates the film to new heights. It's a testament to the skill and creativity of the composer, and a key element in making the movie a truly unforgettable experience.

Michelle Johnson
3/10

The soundtrack of Bringing Out the Dead felt repetitive and monotonous, lacking variety in its musical composition. It failed to evoke the emotional depth and intensity that the movie's themes and characters demanded.

Robert Hall
10/10

The use of diverse musical styles, from ambient electronic sounds to melancholic acoustic melodies, creates a rich tapestry of emotions that immerses the listener in the world of the film. Each track is carefully crafted to evoke a specific mood, whether it's the desperation of Frank's inner turmoil or the fleeting moments of hope in the midst of darkness.

Elizabeth Clark
2/10

Furthermore, the choice of music in Bringing Out the Dead often felt disconnected from the scenes, creating a jarring effect that detracted from the overall viewing experience. The lack of coherence between the visuals and the soundtrack made it difficult to fully immerse oneself in the story and connect with the characters on a deeper level.
