464:"Roadside Memorial" and "Man in the Shadows" were never used in the film. "Smoking Telegram," the cue used in the final scene of the film, is widely considered by fans as the best piece of music in the film. One poster on the Film Score Monthly forum comments, "My understanding is that this cue was done at the very last second (as I recall the scene in question was added to the film at the last minute, I could be wrong) and Mark just knocked it out at his studio and sent it over to the dub stage and that DAT or D-88 has vanished in the last 16 years. He didn't have a copy in his archive either. It happens." Another poster writes, "Initially there was NO music in that scene. Last minute, Carter asked Snow to compose something so they can slap it in the film. He went to his piano and hammered something out and sent it in. That story comes directly from Mr. Snow himself during a conversation I had with him many months ago. Of all people who is bummed it can't be found it's him. Maybe one day it will turn up, but after spending nearly 2 years looking for it (even going through each of his personal DATS dated within a year of the film and tv scores) we had to end the search." 1139: 22: 133: 343:
