Max” (out June 26 via Warner Bros.) is the story of a military dog who loses his Marine handler during the war in Afghanistan, then returns to America where he bonds with the soldier’s troubled brother.

Director Boaz Yakin, who first met Trevor Rabin on “Remember the Titans,” concedes that his is already “a highly emotional movie,” so he needed a composer “who could find emotion without being sappy.”

“I really wanted a score that had a classical movie score quality to it without sounding old-fashioned,” Yakin adds. “He had to carry and sustain the story, and the adventurous aspects of the movie.”

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
