Talking about Desplat. Just listened to a German review of Del Toro’s Frankenstein where the critic called Desplat “the talentless son of Tschaikowsky and Johann Strauss” and his music in that movie “might be good enough for candy commercials but that’s it”.
Always kind of funny when film scores and composers are mentioned over here, if at all. Still so often with some snobism like that. Have it on my notification list on Netflix.
Where was that review?
Perhaps we should/could have topic like “Did they mention the music” for such findings Did’t have FSM have a column like that, too?
