Jerry Goldsmith's score was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Dramatic Score, the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score (lost both times to the score of Titanic), and the BAFTA Award for Best Film Music (lost to the music of Romeo + Juliet). It is based on a musical motif from Leonard Bernstein's Academy Award-nominated score for On the Waterfront.
