Description:
Heroes such as James Bond and Superman are frequently preceded on screen by the sound of their own theme tune. This episode will uncover the contrast between scores for fictional heroic characters like James Bond to real life heroes such as Dith Parn in The Killing Fields. The programme will also look at the way Eastern & Western films have borrowed from each other's conventions of heroic music in such films as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and The Last Emperor.
