I just watch On The Waterfront - and was pleasantly entertained, finding the movie full of excellent acting, nice dialogue and a well presented storyline.
However - the music score was bloody atrocious - I felt as if I was getting a headache a couple of times with the discordant instruments knifing in and out of the scenes. Nice film, AWFUL music.

Well does anybody know the name of the music which was used in the cab scene? I've only acquired 6 of those and the names of those are: Andante, Adagio, Andante Largamente, Moving forward, Allegro non troppo and A tempo. Non of these contain the cab scene score, if anyone knows the name of that particular song please do share would appreciate it alot.
Thx in advance.
Same problem here: I have the score, but the music from the Cab scene, the only music that I really love, isn't there on the soundtrack...
sharei agree that the dialogue/music audio balance was often quite skewed towards bernstein's score, but i loved the music a lot and it was one of the things that made the movie for me. the last shot with the crashing finale still gives me chills.

it is way too loud. i don't remember it being this loud before and i first saw OTW more than 30 years ago. i'm too lazy to check, but maybe the music was "enhanced" for the DVD. That would account for the different opinions on the matter.
it gave me a headache, too.

the movie itself and the acting is one of my top favorites, but i agree that the music sometimes made it sound like some cheesy b-movie
