Bernie's music
Of all the films I've seen that Bernard Herrman scored, this one takes the cake as the most brooding and atmospheric of the bunch.
Herrman was a master at scoring and adding "mood" as few others could and this film is among the best........Brooding, plodding, agonizing, just like the hot steamy, jap infested jungle that these poor bastards had to contend with....Half of my personal enjoyment of this film is due - in no small part to Herrman's scoring.
Take note of the similarities to this score and "The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad" which Herrman scored the same year.
