How To Train Your Dragon - Romance in the Air
About this episode
Ruth Mudge explores the romantic themes in the How to Train Your Dragon trilogy, focusing on the music by John Powell and its connection to flying.
In this final episode for How to Train Your Dragon, Ruth focuses on the romantic themes throughout the trilogy written by composer John Powell. From Astrid and Hiccup to Hiccup's parents to Toothless and the Lightfury, each movie has a unique take on romance that often coincides with flying. We look at how the journey progresses from crushes to epic to quiet and vulnerable. We also look at the similarities of romantic music and flying and the unique opportunities of having both of them occur at the same time.
