“HOWARD SHORE’S SCORE, A MIX OF HYMNS AND ORGANS, BEAUTIFULLY LAYERS THE FILM’S IMAGERY.”
– Jordan Ruimy, World of Reel
Over the course of four decades, Howard Shore and David Cronenberg have collaborated on countless masterpieces (Crash, Videodrome, Dead Ringers, History of Violence… the list goes on and on). The Shrouds continues in the mold of Crimes of the Future, with a delicate but deceptive score. In a film about burial, decay, and the search for meaning—marred by conspiracy theories and an overreliance on technology—the film and score find a space that balances the ethereal and the dreadful. The sacred and profane.
It’s a profoundly beautiful work of art from a maestro who has made some of the best film music of our lifetimes.
