Michael Giacchino
“Labor Of Love”
Star Trek (2009)From the scene where George Kirk sets the U.S.S. Kelvin for a collision course with Nero’s ship, and in the span of a minute or so picks a name out for his son - Jim - and tells his wife Winona that he loves her. Truly one of the most heartbreaking scenes from the entire Trek oeuvre.

Ugh. Christ. It’s so beautiful. This man is a genius. It still gets me choked up even though I’m not watching the movie. THAT, my friends, is the mark of a fantastic score.
