I'm looking for a feel and I have to find what that feel is before I can move on from there. I'm not necessarily catching stuff in such a simple way - I don't need to. So, I'm going for something else. Danny Elfman catchfeelfind share on social
It's hard to get a film, you know, you need a very special film to be able to get that experimental. But, I would love to see that happen. I would love the opportunity to be more experimental than I am. Danny Elfman experimentalfilmhappen share on social
I'll look back and I'd be better to answer that in about three months from now. Or when the movie comes out and I see it. I don't even know what it is yet. I've still been in the middle of it. Danny Elfman answerbackhave Change image and share on social
It sounds really stupid, I hate making cosmic comments like this but, I just let it do what it wants to do. Danny Elfman commentcosmichate Change image and share on social
I would have to say I might do some stuff, but it's the film that's appealing. I was raised on film. My musical experience is all via film, it's not from classical music. Danny Elfman appealclassicalexperience Change image and share on social
I'm trying to interpret the film through the director's head, but it all comes out through me. So, a composer is kind of like a psychic medium. Danny Elfman composerdirectorfilm Change image and share on social
That still has to be there. And so, it's kind of an interesting question you brought up. Because, on the one hand, yeah, it'd be lovely. I certainly don't see that happening. In fact, I see the opposite happening. Danny Elfman bringfacthand share on social
It's just hard. I wish the studios felt there was more value in these themes and these pieces of material - that they're worth protecting more. Because then it just wouldn't happen. If the studios cared, the stuff would be stopped in a second. Danny Elfman carefelthappen share on social
The beauty of a main title is that you establish your main theme and maybe a bit of your secondary theme. You plant the seed that you're going to go water later in the score. And so, having that removed just made it so much more difficult. Danny Elfman beautybitedifficult share on social
So, it becomes an exercise in futility if you write something that does not express the film as the director wishes. It's still their ball game. It's their show. I think any successful composer learns how to dance around the director's impulses. Danny Elfman ballcomposerdance share on social
