Johnny Jewel Talks Scoring Logan’s Run and the Alternate Indie-Electro Soundtrack for Drive

Electro musician (and Italians Do It Better label owner) Johnny Jewel elaborated on the Drive score he was commissioned to compose by director Nicolas Winding Refn . “Nic flew to Montreal and we rented a movie theater and he and I watched the movie twice in a row, back-to-back.

Critics, including Movieline’s own Stephanie Zacharek , were cool toward W.E. at best, with some beating it apart like a glossy piñata. That’s the bad news. The good news is that we know what that calls for, especially with Harvey Weinstein at the domestic-distribution reins: Recut!
