That said, Score serves well as an introduction to the meticulous process by which soundtracks are created, and includes numerous case studies that reveal just how music contrives to shape our movie-going experiences. April 9, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Whilst the film assumes its audience isn't stupid, it doesn't stray into hard-core audiophile territory either and it is all the stronger for it. This is an absolute must for fans of the medium. March 26, 2018 | Rating: 9/10 | Full Review…
