Q: what is the chord playing at 8:39 in this score: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMphxeFoJAc (G/Db, Db, G/Db ?)
A: i'd say so. there's a swarmy climbing strings riff that is sort of erupting through the midst of that, but i think indeed those chords are used. those chords are a recurring theme in this movie (two major triads a tri-tone away, note the sprinkly piano riff that occurs throughout the movie)
