Yes, just heard the news about Lee Tamahori. Unforgettable his movie Once Were Warriors (1994), that was the one that put him on the map for me. He never quite lived up to that great movie, but of course did some other fine movies with good scores.

I was just about to post about it at FSM, but the board is so excruciatingly slow right now… I just came here.
And I’d have pretty much written the same post Thor did. 😀
I think Jerry Goldsmith’s score for ALONG CAME A SPIDER is way underrated, as it is usually seen as one of his lesser efforts, but I disagree. The opening cue “Night Talk” alone is just totally inventive, the musical equivalent of creepy things lurking in the shadows of the night.
