It’s the drama of seemingly unavoidable tragedy with a keen sense of African place on the greater world stage that makes Kilian and Hepker’s score at once as relentlessly suspenseful as any soundtrack in the terrorist-fighting genre, but also one with a poignant realization of the collateral cost of natives who barely rate the margins of a daily drone strike story in the news, their voice crying out on the soundtrack as they’re silenced in a sacrifice they never dreamed of making in the war on terror. – Film Music Magazine

With dialogue almost as snappy and effervescent as the jazzy score, Trumbo and crew subvert and foil the enemy. The mix of drama and humor works well here and comedic backgrounds of many of Trumbo’s stars becomes an incredible asset, adding almost perfect timing to many a line-reading. – Consequence of Sound

Lakeshore Records sat down with Theodore Shapiro, composer of Trumbo, the Academy Award®- and Golden-Globe®-nominated film about Dalton Trumbo, the celebrated Hollywood screenwriter whose principled refusal to name names to the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) earned him 13 years in purgatory as a blacklisted writer.
Theodore talks about his collaboration with Trumbo director Jay Roach and how important it was to preserve the legacy and spirit of Dalton Trumbo through various aspects of scoring the film. “Orchestra for Trumbo was 41 players: it was 31 strings plus brass, piano and harp… It was really critically important that we do this through the union and support our local musicians who are so incredible.” Hear the interview on Soundcloud below.
