involved job music turns
The music's job is to get the audience so involved that they forget how the movie turns out.
astounding basically belongs fancy music
When I do a film score, I am basically nothing more than a fancy pencil for hire. I don't own any of the music when I am - it belongs to the film company - and likewise, when I am done, even if I come up with something astounding that I may want to revisit... in the world of film composition, you can't do that.
