BRIEF REVIEW
Nearly diverting film about a fictional now-forgotten child star studying for his comeback role as a 'normal guy' by living with a 'normal' family in order to experience the childhood he never had. The best jokes involve champagne bottles.
Chris Beck's most noticeable contribution to the soundtrack is a gently uplifting theme which enters when the empathising side of Dickie emergeswhen he is remembering his childhood or when he is showing true feeling to his surrogate family. Since it often coincides with mention of his only good childhood memoryplaying the game CandylandBluntinstrument has taken to dubbing it the 'Candyland theme' (see 'Webmaster's additional 1' below). This idea binds the score together in a more fundamental way than the more casual easy-jazz, rock and pop-ish cues - some by Beck, some by Waddy Wachtel. Beck's cues are normally cheekier, involving jazz organ or harmonica; but there is another style which is more contemporary, and this has been used for the DVD menu also (see the clip above). These less thematic styles, though, are normally used as simple links or wallpaper to jaunty scenes. The film also makes much use of pre-existing pop music, so places where the score is given the space to shine with minimal dialogue are few, making Dickie Roberts a somewhat minor addition to his filmography. The end credits, normally a place to look for score cues, are dominated by Marc Ellis's "Child stars on your television" (to lyrics by Fred Wolf and Robert Smigel).
N.B. The credits mention "Son sueños", by Beck and performer David Barragan (used at 0:22'07"); also a cue "Bottle bump" written with or by (the cue sheet and film credits disagree about Beck's involvement, but these are tiny cues) regular score coordinator Andrew Kaiser.
Webmaster's additional 1: the 'Candyland theme'
Although this theme may be said to emerge out of the story of Dickie Roberts' life-changing experience, it usually features in scenes where dialogue is emphasized, so a soundclip doesn't give it justice. Bluntinstrument has taken the theme where it is used at two points in the movie (ca.0:56'18" where the beginning of the theme is used gently, and ca.1:22'52 where it is extended) and adaptedand arranged it into a single approachable format. The result is not in any form a straight transcription.

Webmaster's additional 2: the director's commentary
DVD counter readings are approximate (taken from a PAL version) and may not tally with the cue-commentary.
0:16'50" The cut from the card game to Dickie driving and talking to his agent.
"This cut here, using this... it's kind of Mexican drums. One of our two composers, Christophe Beck, he did a great job, as did Waddy Wachtelmerging original cource cues with some songs like this."
0:22'15" Cutting from autobiography scene to the newspaper ad.
"Back to the Mexican drums. Interestingly enough, we got a guy who was a Mexican rapper, who wrote this little track you heard, which was about wanting to pursue his dream of being famous. It's great to have a little flavour like that."
0:40'00" Lullaby scene. [The 'Candyland theme']
"Beautiful family theme in the score here. Christophe Beck. Very sweet."
1:20'10" Candy Land present [The 'Candyland theme']
"Chris Beck, the composer, did a great job here with this cue."
The commentary also notes that the end credits song was written by Fred Wolf and Robert Smigel of Saturday Night Live, set to music by Marc Ellis..
Webmaster's additional 3: the cue discussion
DVD counter readings are approximate (taken from PAL version). After a frankly disastrous attempt to separate authoriships of cues, the composer kindly allowed the Bluntinstrument access to the final cue sheets (dated 2003.08.20), enabling this listing to be more authoritative than usual, especially in identifying which cues are by Beck and which by other composers. Christophe Beck cues highlighted in bold; cue sheet data in italics.
0:00'00"-0:00'30" MAIN TITLES (1M0) :30. IN over Paramount

crass, setting up the tone of the movie as well as its characters' roots. Under

Milano [presumably this should be his agent, not his girlfriend] while working
as a parking valet at a restaurant.
This cue and the one that follows use a kooky pop style that you can hear
in the DVD menu music clip above.
0:11'31"-0:12'11" LAMAZE CLASS (1M15) :40. IN as Spade arrives
at meeting and tries to pass as an alcoholic.
Kooky pop style from 0:08'38" returns.

Pea-whistles and drum kit. The commentary, however, is ambiguous as to whether
this was Beck's or pre-existing Mexican drum music. Most likely Beck imitated
a temp cue.

0:21'08"-0:21'21" RELIEVE [RELIVE] CHILDHOOD (2M1) :14. IN
as Spade decides to hire a family in order to relive his childhood.
Reminiscent of the string cues used in Little Black Book and (especially)
Under the Tuscan Sun, with some of the cheekiness that the latter score
imbued in the film. (If the movie is to be believed, it's great to know that
great movie roles go to people who are the correct height.)
CLIP. This cue features much dialogue.
0:22'07"-0:22'30" SON SUENOS [by] David Barragan, Chris Beck.
Performed by David Barragan. :24. SEGUES as his agent is in shock because of
the amount of money needed for Spade's plans.
This is very much the same style as 0:16'38", but this time with vocals.

0:23'02"-0:23'25" HOME 3 (2M5) :24 IN as a gay man confesses

Samba-style. I wonder how they guessed that man was gay?
0:23'25"-0:23'52" FINNEY HOME (2M6) :30 IN as he finally meets
with the ideal family.
We meet Grace Finney, played adeptly by Mary McCormack (pretty well the only
satisfyingly three-dimensional character). Classical orchestra in a bright cue,
almost Disneyesque in its headonistic suburban perfection.
CLIP
0:24'08"-0:24'12" NEGATIVITY. Performed [and composed] by Corey
Feldman. :04. IN as Spade moves in his new house.
Unsure whether this is correct. Sounds like a heavy bass guitar coming from
the husband's car, but this is before Spade moves in.
0:26'22"-0:26'44" [Spade moves in.]
This does not appear to be in the cue sheet (unless it is what the previous
cue header referred to. Harmless underscore very similar to 0:06'21", employing
harmonica, jazz organ and percussion. Strangely this sounds more and more like
the link music of an American comedy of the 70's.
0:27'13"-0:27'52" STANDOFF (2M6B) :28. IN as Spade shares the
memories of his childhood.
Piano theme with gentle harmonisation as Dickie explains who his real father
is. Hereafter titled the 'Candyland theme' because it reflects Dickie's yearning
for a family. Submerged by dialogue, but there is a theme there! (see Webmaster's
additional 1)
0:27'53"-0:28'19" DON'T REMEMBER DAD (2M7) 1:10. SEGUES as
his agent promises him to get him a part in the next Rod Ryan movie.
Harmless underscore developed - now with added rhythm from electric guitar.
CLIP
0:29'45"-0:30'15" DAMMIT [by] Scott Raynot, Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLounge. Performed by Blink 182. :34. IN as Sam (Scott Terra) and Sally Finney (Jenna Boyd) show Spade all their cool toys. [The hose slapstick].
0:30'25"-0:30'53" GARAGE (2M9) :30. IN as Spade sees all their
past favourite toys in the garage.
Allusion to the 'Candyland theme' in this glance of the children's past toys.
0:34'00"-0:34'29" SEND DICKIE TO TREEHOUSE (2M11) :39. IN as
Spade comes back from the bathroom and overhears the Finneys talk among themselves
about sending him away.
A solitary flute plays a snippet of the 'Candyland theme', taken over and extended
by piano. Dickie learns he's not liked in the new home.
0:34'31"-0:34'48" [Dickie goes to the treehouse.]
Not in the cue sheet. Comedy scoring for an otherwise uninteresting scene. One
of the few presumably Beck-scored non-dialogue cues.
CLIP
0:34'58"-0:35'09"TREE HOUSE DISCO [by] Bryan Bonwell, Frank Toddy Winfrey, China Anegawa, Sherwin Charles, Larry Brown. Performed by Larry Blouin, Natasha Barr. :20. SEGUES as Spade spends the night in the redecorated treehouse.

0:35'34"-0:36'09" DISCO INFERNO [by] Leroy Green, Tyrone Kersey. Performed by the Hit Crew. :38. IN as they climb the wooden ladder and look inside while Spade enjoys himself.
0:36'09"-0:38'22" DICKIE'S [TERRA'S] STORY (3M1) :14. IN as
they sit in a circle and Terra begins telling a scary story. [Or rather,
he is ending it - this scene must have been re-cut. Presumably the music is
still Beck's]
CLIP-A Terra's hook hand' story.
Scary.
0:38'24"-0:36'52" SALLY'S
STORY (3M2-A) :34. SEGUES as it is Boyd's turn and Spade cuts her short to make
comments about her witch's resemblance with a schoolmate.
Eerie music for the 'witch' story.
0:37'27"-0:38'38" SCARY STORY PT3
(3M2-B) [by] Waddy Wachtel. 1:20. IN as Spade starts his scary story titled
"The Sitcom that was Cancelled" while a tarantula goes up his sweater.
CLIP-B Opening of the 'sitcom'
story. Included because of the over-the-top dramatics Wachtel used - strangely,
though, this sounds very much like Christophe Beck. The scene turns briefly
into an orchestral chase as spider-enduced pandemonium ensues on-screen.
0:39'33"-0:39'51" MOCKINGBIRD. Traditional. :20. IN as Grace Finney (Mary McCormack) sings a soothing tunr to Spade after he has a nightmare.
0:39'54"-0:40'33" DICKIE TO BED (3M3) :42. IN as Spade falls
in sleep and she leaves the room.
Piano begins the' Candyland theme', with flute taking over, followed by strings,
harp, etc. Subtle scoring. The effect of a mother's love on Dickie explored
by the composer.
0:41'13"-0:42'02" SLIP N SLIDE (3M4) [by] Waddy Wachtel. :55.
IN as Terra and Boyd show Spade how to slip and slide.
Percussion, electric guitars, keyboards. This is the easy-jazz/Jamaican style
most used by Wachtel for the fun scenes, whereas Beck's was a mixture of a more
funky modern pop approach and kooky harmonica-led one. The styling is similar
enough, though, for them to co-exist comfortably in the same film.
0:42'15"-0:42'20" INSANE IN THE BRAIN [by] Louise Freese, Larry Muggerud, Senen Reyes, Jerry Corbitt. Performed by David Spade. :05. IN after Spade uses oil instead of water to slide faster and he crashes against one of the fences.
0:44'14"-0:44'39" BURPING (3M5) [by] Waddy Wachtel. :28. IN as Terra, Boyd, and Spade have a burping contest.
0:44'47"-0:45'26" DEEP INSIDE YOU (3M6) :48. IN as Spade thanks
both Terra and Boyd for letting him stay in their room again.
Jazz organ underscore plays the 'Candyland theme', the instrumentation lending
it a more mellow quality as Dickie and the kids gain a little respect for each
other.
0:45'26"-0:45'30"INSANE IN THE BRAIN [by] Louise Freese, Larry Muggerud, Senen Reyes, Jerry Corbitt. Performed by Jenna Boyd. :04. OVERLAPS as Boyd repeats Spade's words and sleep.
0:46'48"-0:47'20" STROLLER (3M7) :35. IN as Spade sits in a
stroller while McCormack tells him it is ridiculous.
Electric guitar. Sounds very close to Wachtel's style, but Beck's jazz organ
addition adds a little more gently comic kitsch.
0:48'37"-0:49'06" STROLLING (3M8) :32. IN as she suggests that
he dies his hair and wears glasses so that people can not recognize him.
Keyboards, percussion, harmonica. Similar to 0:6'21"
0:50'18"-0:50'58" MAP / DICKIE'S LATE (3M9) :44. IN as Spade
runs between his agent's office and the children's school.
Electric guitars, jazz organ, percussion. Close to the 0:08'40"/DVD menu
music.
0:52'20"-0:52'45" BULLIES / CAR RIDE (3M10) [by] Waddy Wachtel.
:44. IN as Spade takes over Terra's three bullies and turns the situation around.
Sounds like a pop band cue.
0:53'44"-0:54'11" FIRETRUCK (3M11/3M12) :32. IN as Spade clears
up the street from the blocking firetruck by making a fake emergency call.
Return of the style from 0:08'40"/DVD menu. Both scenes involve vehicle-related
comedy.
0:54'52"-0:55'12" FLOOD (3M13) :21. IN as water pours in the
Finney's living room and McCormack throws Spade out of the house.
Jazz organ takes the lead in this chaotic style cue.
0:56'16"-0:56'43" DICKIE THROWN OUT (3M14) :32. IN as Spade
begs McCormack to keep him in the family.
Oboe plays the 'Candyland theme'.
0:56'43"-0:57'09" [The rabbit incident: rabbit found.]
Harmonica, percussion, keyboards. Not on the cue sheet, but definitely similar
to 0:6'21", by Beck.
0:57'42"-0:59'59" BACK IN THE CAGE (4M1) :20. SEGUES as Spade
cleans and dries up the dead rabbit and he returns it back in the neighbor's
cage.
Orchestral cue, featuring military percussion to underscore the fiendish
rabbit plan. The Gurtrudes (nasty neighbours) return home.
CLIP
0:58'29"-0:58'53" DEVIL RABBIT (4M2) :28. IN as the neighbors
move out after they become terrified by the rabbit they thought was dead and
buried.
Brief (and louder) return of Beck's percussion as the neighbours depart - merging
straight into happy pop guitar/jazz organ as the family celebrates.

1:00'22"-1:00'24" GREATEST DAY [by] Jaret Reddick. Performed by Bowling for Soup. :02. IN as a Spade gives another try at riding the bicycle.
1:02'50"-1:03'03" I'M A MOM FIRST (4M6) :44 IN as McCormack
shares her doubts about her marriage.
"Kids always think it's their fault when parents split up." Quiet
underscore as Dickie and mum grow closer. Allusion to the 'Candyland theme'
but not recognisably so.
1:04'03"-1:04'38" DICKIE TEACHES SALLY (4M7) :41 IN as Spade
helps Boyd prepare for the dance audition.
Jaunty (but non-essential) cue from Beck (sounding rather like Elfman's Pee-Wee
scoring).
1:05'04"-1:05'54" I WANNA BE BAD [by] Brian Kierulf, Joshua Schwartz, Amanda Williford. Performed by Willa Ford. :54. IN as the first contestant starts dancing.
1:06'13"-1:07'14" RIDE LIKE THE WIND. Performed [and composed] by Christopher Cross. 1:06. IN as it is Boyd's turn.
1:07'15"-1:07'35" SALLY'S TRIUMPH (1M10) :25. IN as she is
chosen.
A triumphant orchestral tutti version of the 'Candyland theme'.

1:09'20"-1:09'38" GRACE EXPLAINS THE SCRIPT (4M11) :27. IN
as McCormack explains the meaning of the script to Spade.
Glimpse of the 'Candyland theme' during Grace's telling of the Backyard/Heaven
story. Halted when Dickie admits to not understanding its meaning.
CLIP (including Candyland theme,
interrupted)
1:10'01"-1:10'18" CYNDI ARRIVES (4M12) :20. IN as Spade enters
his bedroom and Milano comes near him.
Harmonica, jazz organ, etc. Acting mostly as a link, again using the style from

1:10'57"-1:11'12" END OF DINNER (4M13) :18. IN as George (Craig
Bierko) promises to keep Milano in the house if Spade's pays a bigger rent.
Bouncy harmonica cue (perhaps mocking Milano's jiggling breasts)

1:13'20"-1:14'31" HOT WAX / SYDNEY THROWN OUT (4M15) :43. SEGUES
as Spade spills hot wax on Milano and she curses him.
Quiet keyboard underscore for the Hot wax scene. The music is given a rhythmic
shot in the arm (at 1:13'54") for Sydney's (the manager) quest to get his
star an audition: jazz organ, percussion, electric guitar
1:15'11"-1:16'13" JUST MY IMAGINATION (RUNNING AWAY WITH ME) [by] Norman Whitfield, Barrett Strong. Performed by the Temptations. 1:08. IN as Spade and Terra appear over the fence of the neighbour's house and Terra asks her out.

AUDITION / DICKIE LEAVES (5M3/5M4) 2:51 IN as John Ryan urges Spade

1:21'57"-1:22'52" Keyboard-led music underscores the characters' parting.
1:22'52"-1:23'56"
