In my own humble opinion, this is the most accomplished music score John Williams has ever done, all the crescendos are in the most perfect place, the orchestrations are understated and sublime; a true maestro at work showing that not every great score has to be thunderous and omnipotent, that that much power can be achieved also in a subdued and quietly eloquent manner. The entire music for the film is a magnificent work of art.
I totally agree....the whole movie was worth the ending itself. I repeat it over and over. This movie grows on you. When I first saw it many years ago, I found it sort of boring as so many people do. But I recently rediscovered it on cable and now I am hooked. William Hurt is the greatest actor ever-his face says it all ! And the nostalgic music, what a combination...
this is one of the best cinematic finals ever, so inspired, it gets everyone hoping that special someone will stop for us, and the music just wonderful.

I love the baggage scene. He left everything he thought was valuable to him on the street, except the photo of his son. Wonderful scene.
