It has long been vague exactly what Jerry Goldsmith composed for this film, before being booted from the project. Apparently it's another rejected score like Babe, where he didn't actually record any of it. In fact, while we've seen a photo of the thick manuscript score for Babe, we've never seen one for The Kid and some reports have claimed that Jerry only wrote a few demos for this project before leaving it.
Well guess what? Thanks to the Academy's new website of their holdings, we can see all of Jerry's cue titles for this score as composed and it turns out he wrote TWO DOZEN CUES for this film!

Scene 20a "The Kid in the Kitchen," 3 pages
Scene 23 "The Kid Takes Off," 13 pages
Scene 34 "On the Pier," 5 pages

Scene 77 "Relations," 5 pages
Scene 79 "The Kid and Amy," 6 pages
Scene 81 "She Believes Us," 5 pages
Scene 85 "No Pity," 2 pages
Scene 87-88 "What Happens Next," 10 pages
Scene 92 "Help Me," 15 pages
Scene 100-103 "Help Me (part 2)," 8 pages
Scene 114 "I'm Sorry," 5 pages

Holy smokes! That's a substantial looking unreleased and *unrecorded* Goldsmith score. And in fact it looks like he got further along in this project than he did on Babe, though I would probably have to view the film in order to try and confirm that based on the track titles. Who is up for a Kickstarter campaign to record this score and Babe, and bring them to the world for the very first time?
