... it seems to me extraordinary that such a film should ever have been made. There’s
nothing wrong with the cast - they’re all excellent actors - but I simply can’t imagine
that the public are going to like it. It’s very violent but the violence is so badly done that

haven’t seen anyone from the old days since I went away.
Man: I don’t know. We could try.

Excuse me, did you catch that announcement just then? I heard something about a flight
to Madrid - that’s where I’m going - but I didn’t get what was said exactly. There was
something about boarding at Gate 12,1 think - Gate 12’s over there, according to that
sign but I’m not sure whether we’re supposed to go through now or wait here for
another call. Did you catch it, by any chance?

Well, I’ve always found that it’s the director’s role that’s the really crucial one. He’s the
one who decides what sort of atmosphere the music’s supposed to create and I just take
it from there and try to match the sounds to that. Of course, it’s the actors that get all the
