Did James Horner rip off the theme to this?
I was discussing film composers the other day, I mentioned James Horner and a lot of people seemed to think he ripped off a lot of scores from other composers. One of my favorite scores he made was for The Mask of Zorro. I was just watching The Saint which came out a year before The Mask of Zorro and the score for The Saint composed by Graeme Revel was sounding incredibly familiar to me. I finally placed it. Parts of it are nearly identical to the score from The Mask of Zorro.
What do you think, a little too similar?
