Slush weather now, around 0 C, perhaps slightly above. I hate it.

But I’m sure the freezing temperatures will return soon. So what else do we have?

Harold Kloser’s THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW is more anthemic/downbeat/muscular than connoting freezing cold, even though that is what the film is about. Howard Blake’s THE SNOWMAN is too cozy.

I think I’ll go for James Horner’s IN THE NAME OF THE ROSE next. Although it takes place during winter in medieval times, that’s not the main focus. Yet the chilling electronic textures still connote freezing cold more than the story does.
