Anyone know where I can get my hands on that class theme tune by David Shire?

There is a CD David Shire released to promote his music and it features the main theme which runs over three minutes. Unfortunitely it was never released to the public and your best bet would be Ebay.

The theme music is good, but it doesn't fit this film. It's a bit too whimsical and airy. Not that it needed to be dark and gritty, just edgier.

Before I even press "Play" I sit and listen to the theme a few times to totally get in the mood. One of my all time favorite films.
