My Take
Marco Beltrami is, to me, one of the most underrated names in modern film scoring. The Scream scores alone earned him my respect, but what impresses me is the range, jumping from horror to 3:10 to Yuma's Western textures to the near-silence of A Quiet Place, where the music had to almost disappear. That last one is the kind of restraint a lot of composers never learn. Fellow Brown University alum to Bess Armstrong, oddly enough. I tend to notice his work without noticing his name, which is honestly the highest compliment you can pay a film composer. He serves the picture first.
