Of all of the filmmakers I’ve gotten to know over the years, Matthew Saliba is probably my one of my 2-3 favorite to talk to over the years. Part of that is because he’s helped me dive head-first into kaiju cinema, but it’s always been interesting to see how he dives into filmmakers and film genres a lot of my other friends and filmmaker friends don’t really watch on a […]
Even though such things are easier to see in hindsight, as I started to ramp up my moviewatching in 1996, I could definitely tell my tastes were getting expanded, and my horizons were broadening.

That said, for now, I’ve got a couple of great episodes to finish up […]

They are the final two pieces of my series of Western-inspired pieces I’ve been working on since starting to compose […]
