		Little Jack Horner was reputed to have been the Steward to Richard Whiting (1461 - 1539) the Bishop of Glastonbury.

	Horner: Jack the Bear (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		It's a really lovely score; not perhaps one of Horner's most memorable, but showing a lightness of touch which grace all of his better scores when he's trying for a tender atmosphere, as opposed to the slightly over-full and overwrought drama he can sometimes bring to this type of film.
		Horner brings a kind of tragic beauty to the music which he would revisit later in Iris, a score which I am tempted to describe as similar, though in truth "near identical" would be a closer term, especially in the gorgeous violin solos (heard to best effect in Jack the Bear's final track, "Resolution").
		Aside from the core instrumental group I mentioned earlier, Horner uses electronics frequently in the score, and it is during that lengthy track they come most to the fore, functioning effectively as a tension-building device, though never quite satisfactorily enough at relieving that tension towards the end.

		Horner quickly identified the bones as juvenile Maiasaurus, a huge plant-eating creature that roamed our continent more than 60 million years ago.
