For me the score to Silent Running is highly evocative (more than a generic symphonic suite would have been) for many years I could be found sobbing at the sound of Joan Baez's voice, not just because she sounds rather haunting (and looks just like my mum) but I just kept thinking about that poor little robot chappy *sob* tending the *weep* discarded remnants of Earth's *cry* plant life for all eternity... with his little watering can with the painting of childrens on it... *WHaaaaaaaaaa!*
Maybe you had to grow up with it. I first saw it last year after I bought the new BEAUTIFULLY restored Blu-Ray of 'Silent Running' on the good doctor's reccomendation.
I didn't enjoy it at all. Loved all the BR extras though about the making of. I hate the Joan Baez song at the end in particular lol
