		Simone: (Carter Burwell) Touted as one of the year's potential hits on the big screen, Simone is the creative tale of Hollywood's first computer-generated actress whose digital genetics are unknown to the public and industry at large.
		Composer Carter Burwell, whose technique at composing for a dry sense of humor (especially with so much experience with the Coen Brothers' films) is well documented, provides a similarly snazzy little score for a more futuristic tone.
		Even as Burwell maintains the futuristic curve in the music, he manages to insert a few classic moments of old Hollywood glamour --to an almost comical degree of over-dramatism in parts-- and this plays to the all-important finale cue of the film and album.

	Filmtracks: Adaptation (Carter Burwell)
		Adaptation: (Carter Burwell) The team of director, screenwriter, and composer that brought you Being John Malkovich is back for a creative encore.
		He went ahead and had to score the film as though he personally knew what both the film and the meaning of life are all about, and the resulting collection of inharmonic clangs and suffering mutilations of overlapping themes makes for a ear-wrenching musical experience both in the film and alone on album.
		Burwell's sense of humor about the project is perhaps the most intriguing element of the entire project, for the music itself could easily drive a person --or animal, for that matter-- insane.

		Carter Burwell is a composer best known for his always-appropriate scores for the films of the Coen brothers.
		Burwell had no problem coming up with thematic material for the score, as four themes and motifs are utilized.
		The rest of the album is a meandering mess of quirky, aimless cues where Burwell tries to throw as much as he can at the listener with increasingly weirder and louder instruments and orchestrations on top of his themes.

		Burwell's work for the duo continued with the hyper-kinetic comedy "Raising Arizona" (1987), in which he assigned each major character a distinctive theme; some were adapted folk melodies, others--like the "Spanish rock opera" that greets the arrival of the "Biker from Hell"--used sampled sounds to even quirkier effect.
		Burwell composed his first full orchestral score for "Miller's Crossing" (1990), the Coens' stylish excursion into the gangster film, where his lush melodies served as a counterpoint to the hard-boiled characters' clipped dialogue.
		For "Barton Fink" (1991) Burwell, working closely with sound designer Skip Lievsay, devoloped a "minimalist" score that melded with the other sound effects; there were only about 20 bars of music in the entire film.

		Coincidentally, that composer, Carter Burwell, has also proven to be the only person capable of providing appropriate sounds for another team of vanguard filmmakers, the Coen Brothers.
		With Fargo in particular, Burwell trailblazed a new direction in film music that many copycats have followed.
		Aside from the score tracks, feel-good Turtles oldie “Happy Together” — albeit central to the story — is curiously the only one of the songs from the film (which also included Beck, Folk Implosion, Elvis Costell and the Stones) to show up on the soundtrack.

		As a result, Carter Burwell's music is somewhat eclectic, but still makes for a hugely enjoyable album.
		The mood is not entirely settled, but it is certainly considerably more relaxed than most of the rest of the score (although the swing motif re-appears on a couple of occasions, most notably in Conspiracy Theory and the finale, Riding).
		Burwell's penchant for more bizarre orchestral colour is evident in many other cues.

	Bio for Carter Burwell on MSN Movies
		Burwell's signature mournful-yet-hopeful sound has lent itself well to everything from straight drama to cutting fl comedy.
		Burwell's work on director Spike Jonze's Being John Malkovich found the composer forming a close relationship with yet another unconventional filmmaker, and Burwell subsequently scored Jonze's follow-up feature, Adaptation, as well.
		For inspiration, Burwell often eschews the urban confines of New York City for the nature and serenity of Big Sur, and in 1999, the prolific composer exchanged wedding vows with wife Christine.
