 In the scene towards the end, where Godzillas head pops up behind  the mountain (behind the police man) the Godzilla theme music  begins to play. Music composer Akira Ifukube felt that music wasnt  needed in that scene because, as he said, "...Godzillas appearance  is already impressive enough." However, director Ishiro Honda  decided to include the music cue anyways. Upon the first screening,  when the scene appears with the music, it is said that Ifukube gave  Honda a very disapproving look. However, it was the only moment in  their professional careers together that they ever had a  disagreement.
