Suspiria remake (watch it HERE) director Luca Guadagnino’s horror film / cannibal love story Bones and All will be receiving a a theatrical release on November 23rd, but you don’t have to wait until next Wednesday to hear the film’s score, which was composed by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. Their music can be heard on Spotify at THIS LINK.
Coinciding with the release of the score, Variety has released an interview with Reznor and Ross where they revealed that the first cut Guadagnino showed them of Bones and All was four and a half hours long! (The theatrical cut is just over two hours, with a running time of 130 minutes.) Reznor said, “We sat in here — I don’t think we even got up to pee once — we were spellbound by how he had taken this material and infused humanity, vulnerability and life into this, and it was breathtaking. We were in awe and felt like it doesn’t even need music.“
Guadagnino told Reznor and Ross that he wanted the music to be a character itself, something that would get across the feeling of loneliness and longing. Reznor said, “There was never a focus on the horror element. It’s in there and it serves a purpose.”
Ross added, “We’d have long conversations with Luca about this element of inviting interpretation. But the real heart is the romance. Luca had mentioned the idea of an acoustic guitar. So, we worked around establishing what this longing would be.“
While the score focuses on the romance over the cannibalism, there is one dark piece of music in the film: the original song “(You Make Me Feel Like) Home”, which comes in near the end. Variety notes that “(You Make Me Feel Like) Home” will be a contender for a Best Original Song nomination at the next round of awards ceremonies.
Directed by Guadagnino from a screenplay by his Suspiria collaborator David Kajganich, Bones and All stars Timothée Chalamet (Dune) and Taylor Russell (Escape Room) in the story of
first love between Maren (Russell), a young woman learning how to survive on the margins of society, and Lee (Chalamet), an intense and disenfranchised drifter, as they meet and join together for a thousand-mile odyssey which takes them through the back roads, hidden passages and trap doors of Ronald Reagan’s America. But despite their best efforts, all roads lead back to their terrifying pasts and to a final stand that will determine whether their love can survive their otherness.
Described as a “coming-of-age horror story” and a “horror love story”, the film follows
Maren Yearly on a cross-country trip as she searches for the father she’s never met in an attempt to understand why she has the urge to kill and eat the people that love her.
Chalamet and Russell are joined in the cast by Mark Rylance, André Holland, Michael Stuhlbarg, Francesca Scorsese, Anna Cobb, Chloë Sevigny, Halloween 2018 / Halloween Kills director David Gordon Green, and original Suspiria star Jessica Harper.
