  • Announces: the SHADOW Composed and Conducted By
    Announces: THE SHADOW Composed and Conducted by JERRY GOLDSMITH Intrada Special Collection Volume ISC 204 Universal Pictures' 1994 The Shadow allowed composer Jerry Goldsmith to put his imprimatur on the darkly gothic phase of the superhero genre that developed in the 1990s. Writing for a large orchestra, Goldsmith created a score that found the perfect mix between heroism and menace and resulted in one of his longest scores. Goldsmith’s main title music introduces many of the score’s core elements: an unnerving pitch bend, played by synthesizers; a grandly powerful brass melody for the Shadow; and a bouncing electronic figure that will become a key rhythmic device throughout the score. Goldsmith’s classic sounding Shadow theme and the score’s large scale orchestrations complemented the film’s period setting and lavish look, while the composer’s trademark electronics helped better position the film for a contemporary audience. When the original soundtrack for The Shadow was released in 1994, it presented only a fraction of Jerry Goldsmith’s hour-and-twenty-minute score, reducing the composer’s wealth of action material to two cues and barely hinting at the complete score’s range and scope. In particular, Goldsmith’s elegant and haunting love theme—one of his best of the ’90s—plays only briefly at the very end of the album. This premiere presentation of the complete score represents one of the most substantial restorations of a Goldsmith soundtrack, illuminated by the fact that just 30 minutes of the full 85-minute score appeared on the original 1994 soundtrack album.

  • 1 Living Beside the Shadow of Death by Grace Lukach It's Hard to Say
    1 Living Beside The Shadow of Death By Grace Lukach It’s hard to say when my Grandpa really began to die. Complications from an elective back surgery in 2001 forced him to spend two hundred non-consecutive days of the next year institutionalized—either in the hospital, nursing home, or in-house rehabilitation center. On three separate occasions he was put on a ventilator and for nearly nineteen of those two hundred days he relied on this machine to live. It seemed as though he were dying, but somehow, after all those months of suffering, he recovered his strength and returned home. He had escaped the clutches of death. And though he never again walked independently and would dream of physical activities as simple as driving, he was able to share monthly meals with old co-workers, attend weekly mass, and watch his children—and their children—grow up for six more years. Because of modern medicine, my Grandpa experienced six more years of being alive. But then my Grandpa fell and broke his hip. Back in the hospital, he was intubated and extubated and intubated again. A permanent pacemaker was implanted as well as a dialysis port, a tracheotomy, and a feeding tube. He was on and off the ventilator. Death was the enemy and everyone was fighting with every bit of energy they could muster, but nothing could keep him alive this time. After four months in the hospital, my Grandpa finally died. My Grandma’s journey to death is much clearer. She was a fighter who had regained full mobility after suffering a debilitating stroke that paralyzed her right side at the age of fifty-four.

  • What the Shadows Know 99
    What the Shadows Know 99 What the Shadows Know: The Crime- Fighting Hero the Shadow and His Haunting of Late-1950s Literature Erik Mortenson During the Depression era of the 1930s and the war years of the 1940s, mil- lions of Americans sought escape from the tumultuous times in pulp magazines, comic books, and radio programs. In the face of mob violence, joblessness, war, and social upheaval, masked crusaders provided a much needed source of secu- rity where good triumphed over evil and wrongs were made right. Heroes such as Doc Savage, the Flash, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Captain America, and Superman were always there to save the day, making the world seem fair and in order. This imaginative world not only was an escape from less cheery realities but also ended up providing nostalgic memories of childhood for many writers of the early Cold War years. But not all crime fighters presented such an optimistic outlook. The Shad- ow, who began life in a 1931 pulp magazine but eventually crossed over into radio, was an ambiguous sort of crime fighter. Called “the Shadow” because he moved undetected in these dark spaces, his name provided a hint to his divided character. Although he clearly defended the interests of the average citizen, the Shadow also satisfied the demand for a vigilante justice. His diabolical laughter is perhaps the best sign of his ambiguity. One assumes that it is directed at his adversaries, but its vengeful and spiteful nature strikes fear into victims, as well as victimizers. He was a tour guide to the underworld, providing his fans with a taste of the shady, clandestine lives of the criminals he pursued.
