| This cue was written for a dramatic short entitled Grandpa's Secret (dir. David LaMattina). The film documents a young, impatient boy at his grandfather's funeral. While looking at several of his grandfather's treasured possesions, he learns for the first time that his grandfather was a soldier in World War II. This cue underscores the scene, set in the present with flashbacks to the past, in which the boy discovers a heroic secret which his grandfather had kept to himself for decades. The boy finds a love and admiration for his grandfather, and the scene ends with him striding towards the casket to truly say goodbye.
Emotionally, this cue begins with curiosity, progresses towards realization, evokes noble admiration, before finishing with tenderness and understanding.
