Said dude is Howard Shore, the man who scored (amongst other things) ‘Silence of the Lambs’ and ‘Nobody’s Fool’, and who was the musical director on ‘SNL’ for the first five years (even created the theme). We’ve had a spotting session already, and Howard’s starting his process. I’ve got all the faith in the world in him (I was a big fan of the ‘Nobody’s Fool’ score).

Definitely sounds like a win to us! As for some more info on the film’s old “temp” track:

There were cues from anything and everything: ‘Nightmare Before Christmas’, ‘Mission: Impossible’, ‘Nixon’, ‘The People vs. Larry Flynt’, etc. Song-wise, we’ve got some old 50’s/60’s era standards (‘Magic Moments’ leaps to mind, as does ‘Never on a Sunday’). Mosier was the music man this time out (you can thank him for the Ween), and I thought he did a stellar job for the temp.

The temp track was definitely a hoot. We also noticed a few 80’s classics, some Batman & other Elfman-like music, and even a temp scene from “Event Horizon” stuck in there. The temp stuff was so good, it almost felt like the finished film when we watched it. Must have been a lot of fun laying it all down.
