The soundtrack to
Errol Morris'
documentary
The Thin Blue Line
emphasizes story over music; the interviews which make up the majority of the film -- a crusading effort which led to the the release of its subject,
Randall Adams
, from a Texas prison -- are presented on record as they were on screen, with
Glass'
chamber orchestra music hovering in the background. The result is a soundtrack which comes remarkably close to capturing the power of its source film; even without the moving images, this is a chilling document. ~ Jason Ankeny
