Alex Santoso's Comments


My favorite trivia from Mark Mancini's fantastic article:

5. KING KONG WAS AMONG THE FIRST MOVIES TO HAVE A COMPLETELY ORIGINAL MUSICAL SCORE.

Hailed as “the father of film composing,” Austrian-born Max Steiner, who had previously worked on Broadway musicals, was permitted by Cooper to compose a full-length musical score (at the director’s personal expense). Prior to Kong, cinematic musicians generally borrowed tracks from earlier recordings. Steiner’s soundtrack includes character motifs and accompaniment designed to precisely mirror on-screen movement.

This is sad. It's mindboggling that the TV industry hasn't realized that it makes sense to market their product globally (after all, that's how movie blockbusters make their money - from the international market).
