FREE ACCESS VIDEO ESSAY: “BEST FILM MUSIC EVER” (2023, 10 mins)

Some followers of this site will know my collaborative audiovisual essay series with Cristina Álvarez López since 2016, THE THINKING MACHINE – currently up to its 85^th monthly instalment! The entire archive of this project is online at FILMKRANT magazine, except for several that, for technical reasons beyond our control, are no longer viewable there. Here is one of those exceptions, from January 2023: “Best Film Music Ever”: a polemic against ‘film music score’ purists! And a tribute to one of the all-time-greatest films, Jerzy Skolimowski’s LE DÉPART (1967) with music by Krzysztof Komeda.
