Brothers at War is the latest score from Lee which posed a special challenge in a way that he had to write a sublime score that wouldn't overpower the movie. The film is directed by Jake Rademacher's who goes to Iraq to understand what his brothers are fighting for. Apart from providing a rare glimpse of frontline life, the Brothers at War also examines the effect of the war on families. The movie was brought added publicity when Gary Sinise (Lt. Dan from Forrest Gump) signed up as an executive producer in order to promote this unique approach to the subject. One could argue that this is not the type of film that needs a score, but Holdridge manages to bring some great music to the table without becoming an overpowering entity that would crush the realistic approach to the war. We're closing this special week with Lee's thoughs about scoring Rademacher's directorial debut.
