The Night Window (Piano & Orchestra) | 1917 (OST) by Thomas Newman

- In his lastest war movie, "1917", director Sam Mendes focuses on a simple yet powerful story about life, death, destruction, hope and sacrifice. There are many things to be praised of this movie - but especially the “Night Window” scene was the most surreal moment of the entire film. The beautiful movements of the shadows on the surrounding ruins of the city and the majestic score from Thomas Newman made that scene absolutely unforgettable.
I realized that the soundtrack used in that scene was arranged also for piano in the tracks “Gehenna” and “Milk” from the OST, so I mixed them together in a cohesive order. Here is the result of that montage. I hope you enjoy this score - and I also hope in its victory at the Oscars!
Tracklist:
0:00 Milk
2:28 Gehenna
4:03 The Night Window

Unforgettable scene, a great moment of cinema history
Absolutely this movie was phenomenal, I love war movies and have my favourites but this jumped straight in to my top 3, I can't wait to see it again
Easily my favorite war movie simply due to the theater experience. And I've seen plenty in theater. This one was just... different.
It was very surreal when all the flares were going up in the night.
The Official Spaghetti Bois they were illumination rounds. They’re flares. Shot out of cannons, now mortar tubes, they’re designed to light up the battlefield
It was trippy
That was the best cinematic noir shot in the history of war movies i have seen.
@@ianfelland8402 Was very confusing to me lol
In Dolby Cinema It felt like it was actually happening on a stage and not a screen.
Favorite scene of the whole movie
Well technically its really one long scene heh
@@Risingofthephoenix it isn’t it is cut when the scene goes dark
For me, a very close second to the "Schofield Run" scene. This was more had better cinematography, but that scene was more viseral.
@@QWERTYTRMC no
@@RP_Duval yes
I’m still processing the artistic beauty, the profound and visceral experience that was that scene.
never experienced anything like it in the theaters
To quote someone on the twin peaks subreddit after the return episode 8 'How am I ever meant to think about anything else ever again?'
German soldiers settling in a entire French city, flares going up in the air, and one lone British soldier is out on a mission of a life-time, having to go through this chaos. Perfect scene, and even more perfect music.
Eli C imagine being the one experiencing that chaos. What a scene.
@@Notorious40z my grandpa was german he was in the 2nd ww
Eli C I never understood that part, Why are they sending flares up? Why is he there, why did the weather/lighting suddenly change to when he fell down the stairs to waking up..
Do u know? And could u explain?
ZiepexGamer I’m not really sure about all of it but the reason the weather and lighting changed was because he was unconscious on the stairs for a few hours and it was late at night. Hope this helps :)
@@ziepex7009 Sorry this comment is late, but I hope this could answer your questions. In the movie the main character (after reaching an town- on his way to warn an advancing part of the British army of a trap -and being injured) falls unconscious which (from the viewers understanding) lasts until the middle of the night, when he wakes up to find the dark setting filled with Germans.
The lighting is due to a variety of reasons: the darkness due to the night, the light due to several fires and flares being set, and perhaps other actions happening off screen.
We know that (from the scene) the Germans had set several of the buildings on fire and had begun to send flares. I believe that I have a logical reason for this: they were (relatively obviously) signaling their position.
There could be several reasons why they are doing this (though it isn't really explained in the movie). They may have low supplies or troops and are sending the flares in hope of support (which is a more realistic scenario) though they may also be using these signals to let the soldiers be alerted of an event (perhaps being called to action or warning them of something). My final explanation of this (which is a lot less realistic) is that they were trying to light up the area to see (which is a waste of resources).
I hope this helps, I'd suggest taking a closer look at the scene.
This soundtrack fit perfectly with the scene, it feels like time has stopped
Cinemaster ZA WARUDO TOKEWO TOMARE!!!
Couldn't agree more.
Luckily, I never have had to experience such brutality in terms of World war, and the powerful, yet delicate soundtrack just makes me in awe or the soldiers on all sides that had to put up with this futile shit.
I HAD THE SAMEEE FEELING
This is the last movie I saw before this shutdown we call COVID, i saw this movie 8 times and if I never get to see or hear another movie on a screen, the way movies should be seen, I am so happy and content that this resonant, important story is the one I got to see.
Wow, I've never seen a movie 8 times in theaters! The last movie I watched before the lockdown was Tenet (twice), it was awesome.
I will always hate that I can never see this scene for the first time in a theater again this scene alone made this one of my all time favorites.
I think this every time I see this scene and the waterfall/chase scene
the fact that this movie only has 2 scenes scares me
Chapter select: which scene would you like to start at? 1 or 2?
The whole film is a masterpiece but My God!!!!This scene from the moment he wakes up til he jumps in the river.... thanks to Thomas Newman,Roger Deakins and Sam Mendes they take it to another level.
The music made this scene otherworldly. What an amazing experience.
I only rewatch a movie because I forget I watched it years before. I saw this movie twice the same week, something I have never done before in my life with any other movie.
The same with me !
Thomas Newman has created a soundtrack for ages. It will be remembered in future as a masterpiece.
I love the dramatic irony of seeing a fountain scene set ablaze by war.
Thomas Newman is and always was a genius in film scores 😍😍😍
I genuinely thought that entire scene was just the protagonist having a nightmare, until he found the French women and I realized that it was not a nightmare. WW 1, alongside any other war, was horrible
Giving me goosebumps every time. Absolutely fantastic score. A masterpiece
Every single time.
Me Too...goosebumps for sure! d((~___~))b
reala hope can be a dangerous thing xxx
Yes. Excellent.
the night window is genuinely a masterpiece. hands down the best scene i have ever seen in a movie!!
this is pure ART, should have won the oscar instead of Joker
The score & cinematography, yes! Movie overall, Joker deserved it more imo
I was watching the movie, at first I was "cool", kind of seeing something vaguely similar. BUT when "the night widow scene" made its entrance I literally got off my seat, I couldn't beleive what I saw, what I heard! It was so unexpected, so beautiful, the definition of an awe moment. I litteraly contemplated a supernova in motion. Rarely have I been satisfied like that...
Just everything about it was more than beautiful-the cinematography and the soundtrack took me out of myself, to that special place that only certain scenes can take you,I don't care if that sounds pretentious, I was nearly crying with how much this affected me.
@@thekidfromcastlerock3891 Thats the magic of Rodger Deakins he's nothing short of incredible.
They had me when the camera was gliding over the puddle going through No Man's Land. But then this....
One of the best OST I've heard. This piece is especially haunting and utterly beautiful. There's no such thing as "I've listened to it too much!".
Beauty and horror. Its what this picture is about, what this soundtrack is about, and what this movie is about
Cinematic history for sure. Right up there with the final scenes of 'Last of the mohicans' and 'Mountains' in 'Interstellar'. So powerful.
the moment when the camera came through the window, i felt i was floating down from heaven along with the character, even though he had turned around and went down the stairs. The moments that followed, with him running away from the invisible enemy, dodging the flares, hiding in the shadows, is one of the greatest moments of cinema I will never ever forget. If there was an Oscar for best scene, this would have won it. Even better than the climactic over the top scene.
My heart is pounding
This sound track is so powerful it gets to the heart ❤️ of you
Basically, my favorite melody from my favorite piece of moviemusic from my favorite movie
So thanks for that
This scene is metaphysical, metaphorcial. Times stops or slows down greatly...Humanity is represented by a few soldiers....This town is out of the physical world...
imo a film that should be remembered in film history
After 4:03 "the night window" soundtracks starts... before its when they go to the german trench.
True!
3 more weeks until I can see this again. I cannot wait.
I already saw it 2x, George Mackay's movie and actor totally got me
Legendary scene. One of best bits of cinematography ever.
What a fantastic movie. Imagining my great grandad who served in the Royal Engineers as an Orderly.. and the score fits perfectly. He survived, otherwise I wouldn't be alive, but me, my dad and my grandad agrees this honours him and his brothers; a gigantic band of brave, young men, not many older than me, who fought a pointless yet poignant war over inches of soil and power to the upper classes. A war of shambles. God bless those boys
never let the bastards send our sons again to line there pockets
@@markcooney9478 This time, very soon I think, we're taking it straight to the bankers and the bolsheviks. Two sides of the same coin.
All roads lead to Jerusalem.
Best war movie since Saving Private Ryan. I can't be the only one who thinks this.
Best WW1 Film = 1917
Best WW2 Film = Saving Private Ryan
Best Vietnam War Film = Full Metal Jacket
@@dawnlightgem1526 Vietnam = platoon or apocalypse now
@@dawnlightgem1526 Best Modern era film - Black Hawk Down
another good one set in early 1800s - Master & Commander
i think it’s one of the best movies i’ve ever seen , it took my breath away and moved me like no other film has.
@@nomesobrenome4092 Yeah they all good.
One of the greatest soundtracks!
The visual strength of these scenes reminds me of directors like Tarkovsky Kubrick or Kursosawa, it is pure ART and the soundtrack highlights that grandeur even more.
Thomas Newman effortlessly enchants me.
Very imotional scene. This soldier is wonderful and super.
♥️♥️♥️♥️
A perfect movie to watch at midnight, this music and the entire movie gave me a special feeling which I can't express
This made me reevaluate just how beautiful and moving film can be. The soundtrack combined with the chiaruscuro is breathtaking. Pulled me out of a depression weirdly, knowing there was stuff like this in the world.
Thanks for sharing these details of your story, I'm happy to hear that now you feel better.
@@Tim_S_Lucas Thank you for your response, I am doing a bit better now, I now listen to this even now that I am more stable, because it's sheer beauty reminds me how much life is out there, and how much more there is to discover. I am touched that you replied to me, you're an awesome human being (without being creepy about it).
I know Im going to wear this OST out just like American Beauty.
Loved being an extra in this iconic film. :-)
Can you say who were you? (For example “Im the guy at 1:23:22 who looks up” or something)
@@thelordofthememes8702I'm curious to know how you guys get casted for these things? I've always wondered where casting directors even recruit extras from.
@@cartergirl3of3 oh sorry for the mislead I wanted to show him an example of how to state who he was. I'm not an extra
Favorite movie
Jamie A same
I have goosebumps this is truly spectacular a true masterpiece
An Oscar for best cinematography does not give this movie justice.
Especially because the Oscars are crap. The movie is a masterpiece on its own.
Amazing moment with amazing music! My favorite scene in 1917👍
i really like how this song can make me feel so much
If it was not Joker, it would have been this amazing score would have been the winner for sure. #oscar #2019
One of the most underrated scenes in movie history.
Last movie I saw in the theater, glad it was a good one.
Even Dolby can't reciprocate the music... Amazing! 😍
The best scene, for a moment my mind told me i was watching an epic sci fi and this being a scene where we were first introduced to a New planet.
goosebump. on repeat
I don't think it give goosebump , the oil from dunkirk does (4:50)
Remind me the light of the seven in the last épisode of season 6 in game of thrones.
Feels like a God Moment!
Thomas Newman's music was definitely inspired; kind of like the Rutter "Gloria," if you ever get a chance to check that out.
Unforgettable film experience in theaters
Gehenna made my heart beating 150 bpm being seated.
That’s a nice mix. Thanks for putting it together.
Good mix. Chills after chills
Im fine Im fine! I just got something in my eye..
Such a powerful tune
Very sad but beautiful
I wish I could upvote this every time I hear it!
Is this a dream?? One keeps thinking....
Actually it's this surreal music that is doing it to your brain !! 🎶👌
Masterpiece
me sigue encantando este tema es hermosoo!!!
This music 😍
didnt know these are three separate pieces, really great done! thanx!
Musical Genius !!!
Just an amazing piece of well put together music I’ve ever heard.
I can't describe this masterpiece, wonderful representation, magnificent sound🌟.
oscars were rigged this is one of the most emotionally attacking orchestral pieces I've ever heard
astonishingly beautiful shot, music fits so well. Broken village under flare light with those shadows is hauntingly epic. Great track.
Another beautiful haunting piece by Thomas Newman . Love this track .
masterpiece!
Very powerful images, highlighted by the music. An absolute masterpiece. In the mayhem and destruction of the town, "A baby girl.."
The music reminds me of Mendes earlier work, Road To Perdition and American Beauty
Brilliant!
Hermoso tema....es...PERFECTO!!!
Thanks for mix them in this order
SIEMPRE LA ESCUCHO AL HACER MIS TAREAS...ME ENCANTA TODOS LOS SOUNTRACKS DE LA PELICULA :)
Awesome work. Thanks for sharing it.
Wonderful.
Just watched Gracie Gold's exhibition skate from the 2014 Sochi Olympics, and I couldn't help but think about what if someone could put together a skating routine using this track, it would be awesome.
Great movie with incredible music!
Hermosa pelicula
This makes me wanna learn piano and learn this song I really wanna. And then show my friends and family bc thay love war stuff
Amazing montage! I was looking for the theme with strings, but couldn’t find clearly on Night Window. Now I see it resides in Gehenna ending! Thanks a lot! Do you know which song was which specific scene?
You're welcome! As I remember, the track "Milk" was the part in abandon farmhouse, before the plane crushes, while "Gehenna" should be playing when they are crossing no man's land and ultimately reach the German trench.
Gehenna is when they are crossing no man's land and the cinema shot of them crossing a lake by going alongside the banks. Probably my favourite cinematic scene in the whole movie cuz the camera hovers over the actual lake while shooting them and gehenna builds up a new level of tension which sets up the next scene where they reach the German front lines.
Yeah “Gehenna” is the true gem of this score
This was the 1st film i saw at a huge Imax screening! was wonderful emotional i picked the right movie for sure :)
Esta obra de artes siempre la escucho me concentra
This is to good am so glad i have this movie one of the best ww1 movies ever evry thing is perfect
It felt like a dream
Jadorrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeee❤❤❤❤❤
sounds like Road to Perdition OST, both by Thomas Newman
This is such a weird thing to share but I was kind of suicidal ideating and shit. And I found this movie and the scene and the music were so beautiful to me that I thought I should carry on living if for nothing else so that I can experience the beauty these things bring us. Yes, I am pathetic.
You're not pathetic. This darkness we've all been subjected to will pass and you will find the beauty He put in this world again.
@@rinck17 I read this at a time I really needed to hear it, I'm so glad there's people here willing to listen :)
I missed your comment until today, I'm sorry I didn't answer earlier to you.
You are not pathetic because of what you are dealing with. Instead, I want to thank you for opening up about your hard times in life, and I'm happy to know that you have found something that can help you keep going on. Remember that you are not alone nor the only one who is suffering right now. Be sure to search for help if you need it.
@@Tim_S_Lucas First of all, thank you for such a heartfelt and genuine response. I am incredibly touched that you reached out and replied to me,and also made me feel validated in my response to this music. Its interactions like these that show me that even in the darkest of times, there are bright moments. I realise I am not the only one suffering right now, and I try to emulate the supportiveness you showed me to other people on here as much as I can. Thank you for being such a compassionate and heartfelt human being.
من اروع الافلام السينمائيه التي شاهدتها في حياتي موسيقى تصويريه جميله فلم جامد
Yay
Getting Halo 3 ODST vibes from this
Come and See (1985 Russian) is my favorite war movie and just flat out favorite movie of all time, I recommend it to all war movie buffs.
