Reply To: Do you separate between person and composer?
Interesting twist on the premise, Geratewohl, but it’s true — I have it the same way with Giacchino. Seems like a super nice guy; I just can’t stand his music. So definitely a person/music separation going on there.
(of course, it always pains my heart a bit when you and Sigbjørn and others are so hard on Zimmer, who is my second favourite film composer of all time — I often feel like you’ve just heard his music in the last 20 years, and not so much of the more musical, accessible stuff in the 90s and earlier…but hey, to each their own and all that).
