Art of the Soundtrack
I was watching KPAX last night with Kevin Spacey. It has been the first time I have watched it since I started editing. I was BLOWN AWAY on how perfect the soundtrack was for the movie. I’m not talking about a full song, but the “space” music they play during certain scenes when Prote is on the screen. I truly believe that the movie would not even be half as good without the soundtrack. It pulls you in and sets you in a certain frame of mind. The movie makes you go where it wants you to go. Does anyone else have any favorite movies where the soundtrack makes the movie?

I love the ones I have to wtach more than once for technicals cuz I got into the movie itself.
Was watchin’ Napoleon Dynomite again the other night. I noted much more sweetening than I did when I watched it as a movie. The casio keyboard score, the never-ending background sound effects, even the awkward pauses become a part of it’s sound track.
Anything that sneaks something past me the first time… very cool.
