About two years ago, Phil Klein co-wrote the score for "Pig" with Alexis Grapsas... an entrancing film featuring the actor Nicolas Cage and a truffle-hunting companion...
Klein also has written music for other films as well, ‘Wish Dragon' and the war-film, 'The Last Full Measure'.
It was a directorial debut for a writer / cinematographer, Michael Sarnoski.
The film is set among the dense forests and woodlands of Oregon on the Northwest Coast of the United States, as well as in Portland’s happening restaurant scene.
"Pig" really is a wonderful film to watch - and also to listen to. A lot of people have been downloading the score and listening to Phil’s music by itself.
Within this interview, there’s a lot about the story-telling process or some aspect of it, like the dialogue.
Happy listening!
