Carter Burwell: 1 line the maker said so ×1

  1. unmapped (scoring lesson): The Birds ⇒ Carter Burwell (the maker said so: the Criterion disc feature with Skip Lievsay and Carter Burwell). Burwell's first study film for learning scoring was The Birds, which has no conventional score, teaching him that sometimes the move is not to underscore.
    “And he watched the birds. And then only at the end of watching the birds, did he realize, oh, this movie has no conventional score.”
