Produced for television and based on Barbara Cartland's 1952 romance novel, CUPID RIDES PILLION, the film is also known as DANGEROUS LOVE. The story is set in England during the Restoration of King Charles II to the throne. THE LADY AND THE HIGHWAYMAN provided composer Laurie Johnson with the perfect canvas to showcase his talents, allowing him to draw from a rich tapestry of inspiration, channeling the styles of celebrated composers from Hollywood's Golden Age, including Sir William Walton, Franz Waxman, Max Steiner, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, and his esteemed friend, Bernard Herrmann. The score includes a principal heroic theme for Hugh Grant's enigmatic highwayman, Lucius Vyne, and a delicate, recurring love theme that captures the essence of the principal characters' various romantic encounters, forming the emotional backbone of this captivating narrative. The score is brought to life through a traditional symphony orchestra, recorded in England with a talented ensemble of musicians, many of whom Johnston had collaborated with over the years.
