The movie is called “Up.” I know the musical cue as “1M6.” It is entitled “A Married Life.”
It is the most heartwarming and most heartbreaking sequence in modern film-making. I can’t not enjoy it, and yet not cry.
The music is by Michael Giacchino.
Now, I work on lots and lots of Hollywood movies. But, this one is special.
The rest of the “Up” score is also great. Worthy of, I don’t know, an Oscar. (Hint: It won.)
But, I’m sitting with my daughters, watching a movie about an old man, a young boy, and a dream. In tears. And, all I can say is:
Squirrel!
Can’t stop laughing.
