7PM: SOUNDTRACK LISTENING
8PM: FILM SCREENING
For the movie’s directors, “the original music, as with other elements of the movie, had to echo the retro sounds of the Sixties and early Seventies”. Music defines each character. For example, “Tumbling Tumbleweeds” by Bob Nolan was chosen for the Stranger at the time the Coens wrote the screenplay, as was “Lujon” by Henry Mancini for Jackie Treehorn. “The German nihilists are accompanied by techno-pop and Jeff Bridges by Creedence. So there’s a musical signature for each of them”, remarked Ethan Coen in an interview.
