The Death Of Robin Hood OST - Jim Ghedi (2026)
What I had on my list for today disappeared from Spotify sometime during the week, and I was thinking about doing more soundtrack music anyway, and I’m about to go see this film in a few minutes.
update: I saw the film. The first half was ridiculously bloody. easily winning the “most weapons protruding from people’s heads” award among movies I’ve seen lately. Then it mellowed into a tense but thoughtful story of revenge and forgiveness and legacy that also managed to shout out Lucretius, so bonus points there.
Ghedi’s music is heavy on the British folk tradition and leans heavily into the darker, more intense side of that here. I’d have to say the music is dense and mournful on the whole, but just like the movie it recontextualizes itself to feel more like a celebration by the end.
Both the film and its score are remarkable, for being so different than what you might expect and carving out space for something new.
