HS
COMMENT
(TTT Audio Commentary)
PITY OF GOLLUM
aka Slinker or
Sméagol's Theme is one of Gollum's
two themes. This
lyrical, slow, sad music is the exclusive music for Gollum in FOTR.
It is still evident in TTT, as Gollum and Sméagol take turns with
the creatures intentions, but by ROTK, the two have agreed: Frodo
and Sam must die. The Pity of Gollum is only hinted at until final
aggressive variant is heard.
"GOLLUM'S SONG" -
"GOLLUM SONG" aka Stinker or Gollum's Theme - Doug Adams
identifies this end credit song for TTT as being a "further
exploration" to the Pity of Gollum. (pg 39,
The Music of the LOTR
Films). For more information, see
The Music of the LOTR
Films.
(20 second sample)
MENACE OF GOLLUM aka Stinker
or Gollum's Theme - this music is played on a type of
hammered dulcimer which gives it a jittery effect.
