Improvist, I absolutely agree with you... the music plays a lead
character in this fantastic, brilliant cinematic "piece of art", and
the 7th symphony fits in the greater scheme of the things as Beethoven
would have composed the music ONLY with 'ZARDOZ' in mind.

Great thread, everyone should feel free to add 2 cents, too.
