We tried some new approaches in terms of handing over lots and lots of music that was composed really from an impressionist point of view, before anything was even shot, so that (director) David (Fincher) and the filmmakers could really weave it into the fabric of the story,” Reznor said. “Just see how that works: a new experiment.”
It seems to have worked just fine: The composers earned a Golden Globe nomination for their original score — their second consecutive nomination in that category. The pair won the Golden Globe and the Academy Award for their score for 2010’s “The Social Network.”
Reznor, 46, said working with Fincher on “The Social Network” prepared the composers to take a novel approach to the music for “Dragon Tattoo.”
