What happens when animated films don’t follow every footstep, pratfall, or punch with a musical sting? This week, we’re diving deep into two extraordinary scores that rise above the usual cartoon tropes: Jerry Goldsmith’s rich, haunting work on The Secret of NIMH (1982) and Disney’s Mulan (1998).

With special guests Clark and David from The Goldsmith Odyssey, we explore how these composers use themes, atmosphere, and emotional undercurrents—not just action cues—to tell deeper stories. No Mickey Mousing here — just powerful, cinematic composition in animated form.

Timings for this week are:

Deliverance: (08:13)

Green Room: (38:30)

Next episode our theme will be human and robot movies.
