Composers like Williams and Morricone are paid to write what's shown on the
screen.  For my taste, they mostly endow what is shown with undue credit.
They're both very, very good at their craft.  But I do agree that listening
to either one of them on ear phones, and with nothing showing, is about as
uplifting an experience as the sound of a fish struggling out of water.
