When I Do The Music, I Make

Obviously, I Try To Make The Films Work For An Audience. That's The Main Point Of Making A Film, And In Retrospect, One Can See That Certain Films, Let's Say Leaving Las Vegas, Demonstrated Its Own Success.

There's A Sadness To The Human Condition That I Think Music Is Good For. It Gives A Counterpoint To The Visual Beauty, And Adds Depth To Pictures That They Wouldn't Have If The Music Wasn't There.

I've Held Onto Little Musical Sketches That I Thought Could Be Useful, And The More Time That I Spend Doing Them For Each Film, Then The More I Have To Draw On.

When I Do The Music, I Make The Musicians Listen To What's Happening In The Film. That Way They Treat The Dialogue As If It Was A Singer.

One Of The Things I Love About Cinema Is The Range.
