The score
The music is characterized by its full, dramatic sound that complements the film's gothic atmosphere. The classical style helps to coveys the dark emotional struggles of the characters.
The rock band Guns N' Roses covered the Rolling Stones song "Sympathy for the Devil", which plays during the film's end credits. The song was released as a single CD was also released, with "Escape to Paris" as a B side.
The album was nominated for the Academy Award and the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score, losing on both counts to the score of The Lion King.
