Hans Zimmer in Hollywood

[The Right To Arm Bears]

Came across this documentary on the Germanic god of film scoring (it helps if you speak German - although a fair bit is in English):

Very Interesting - the insight into the Lion King score is particularly fab. "The beautiful music makes it more sad" Above all of you get a sense of how emotionally intelligent he is - which I suppose is the quintessential quality of a great composer. Also I suppose quite predictably he's a dab hand on old joanna.

Quote from Ridley Scott paraphrasing Hans 'Somzing haz tzu go!'
