I saw LS when it came out, thought it 2.5/4, so I never rewatched and don't remotely remember the music.

It's the guy from the Call, apparently.

i love this movie! i even kind of like the music, though it also kind of makes me cringe. susan sarandon is great in this. willem dafoe, one of his best performances! this is great for early nineties crappy interior design/ugly silk shirts porn.

young sam rockwell! young jane adams! dana delany as a mystifyingly alluring woman of mystery! mystifying because her appeal escapes me, but that's okay!

i loved her on china beach. would have fought on a beach for her on china beach. this music ruined the movie for me. how many movies have you seen where the music completely ruins the movie for you?

The 1989 Tim Burton one?

Do you mean the Danny Elfman score, or the Prince songs that appear in the film (or both?)

I had the 1989 Batman film on VHS when I was about 9, there's a character in the film called Knox, and at one point another character says to him "you're full of shit, Knox", but I wasn't familiar the phrase 'full of shit' when I was 9, and I'd forgotten that the character's name was Knox, so I thought they'd said "you're full of ship knots", and I had the idea in my head that this was a phrase that people use until I was about 18 and I watched the film again for the first time in years and realised.
