The deeply idiosyncratic The Life & Times of Judge Roy Bean remains one of Maurice Jarre's most ambitious ventures into the Western genre -- forged from classicist melodies, atmospheric arrangements and eccentric instrumentation, the music channels influences from mariachi to honky tonk to conjure a wry, knowing evocation of weird-beard Americana. "Judge Roy Bean's Theme" immediately establishes the score's complex pastiche of romance, nostalgia and violence, all brought to life in typical Jarre fashion -- not everything here works, and sometimes the composer's reach exceeds his grasp, but the music's structural complexity and tactile presence are undeniably impressive. Film Score Monthly's deluxe 2006 reissue more than doubles the running time of Columbia's original 1973 release, adding a series of unreleased cues and alternate takes -- an illuminating booklet completes a typically top-shelf FSM package.
