DOLORES CLAIBORNE - MAIN THEME (Danny Elfman) HQ

Stephen King fans, Dolores Claiborne fans, or Danny Elfman fans... here is that gorgeous piece of music (main title theme) that opens the movie Dolores Claiborne. Yeah, the guy wrote the theme to The Simpsons... but my god it just goes to show how diverse and talented Elfman is. The score to the movie was absolute perfection. But nothing hits home harder than this opening theme that sets the tone when you sit down to watch this movie. Haunting, dark, foreboding...just close your eyes and enter Dolores' world. The feelings this piece create are still powerful on me every time... takes you back to a cold shoreline, distant memories, and feelings of being alone and isolated. Amazing what a piece of music can do when written with a theme in mind by a brilliant composer. Enjoy. Remember...close your eyes and turn it up.

I live only a 40 minute drive from the main shooting locations (Blue Rocks, Chester, and Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, CANADA). I have stood in the exact spot where JJL is standing in the video. The house set is long gone and it's just miles of grassy fields and shrubs. It's surreal.

The soundtrack CD is available on Amazon. Check any other large online music stores. You should be able to find it. I posted the label and catalog information in the more-info section on the right....

Brilliant all around. It was truly terrible that this film was overlooked in the award season that followed. Astounding work here. From everyone involved. And a performance Kathy Bates has said she is truly proud of from the acting craft point of view.

[mlc2005]

Thanks! I actually owned this soundtrack but I lost it during a move! Nice to hear this stunning and haunting theme again. Brilliant movie.

[Magnolia296]

Very suitable theme to a very beautiful movie. I was impressed with this beautiful movie. Kathy Bates made this film - absolutely brilliant performance. She should have won the Oscar or at least being nominated for this award. Jennifer Jason Leigh and Judy Parfitt were stunning as well.

Fantastic movie based on a book by genius Stephen King.
