"The Unknown Known," the story
of Rumsfeld, Donald Rumsfeld--
3
00:00:13,820 --> 00:00:15,680
wow, what a subject matter.
4
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:16,730
What a character.
5
00:00:16,730 --> 00:00:19,280
There's nothing I like
about Donald Rumsfeld.
6
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,650
Dick Cheney and Donald
Rumsfeld are my two least
7
00:00:21,650 --> 00:00:23,270
favorite people in the world.
8
00:00:23,270 --> 00:00:25,670
But this is Donald
Rumsfeld's story,
9
00:00:25,670 --> 00:00:27,020
and I'm going to score it.
10
00:00:27,020 --> 00:00:30,710
I tried to find a very
simple leitmotif, a melody,
11
00:00:30,710 --> 00:00:33,620
and we established it like this.
12
00:00:33,624 --> 00:00:36,604
[MUSIC - "MAIN TITLES"]
13
00:00:37,110 --> 00:00:38,100
Real sweet.
14
00:00:38,100 --> 00:00:39,780
Very simple guitar.
15
00:00:47,860 --> 00:00:49,030
And here's my melody.
16
00:00:49,030 --> 00:00:52,450
And can we pause for a moment?
17
00:00:52,450 --> 00:00:55,780
What I like to point out here,
and then we'll play it again,
18
00:00:55,780 --> 00:00:58,020
is that I'm intentionally
not starting
19
00:00:58,018 --> 00:01:00,308
the melody, which is going
to be a very simple melody--
20
00:01:00,310 --> 00:01:05,380
(SINGING) da da da da, da da
da da, da da da, da da da.
21
00:01:05,375 --> 00:01:07,005
(SPEAKING NORMALLY)
Notice that I'm not
22
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,980
starting on the downbeat
because that's how
23
00:01:09,983 --> 00:01:11,153
we're used to hearing music.
24
00:01:11,150 --> 00:01:12,190
You hear an introduction.
25
00:01:12,192 --> 00:01:16,212
It goes, (SINGING) dun dun,
dun dun, dun dun, dun dun,
26
00:01:16,210 --> 00:01:18,680
and then [INAUDIBLE]
and 4 and da da, da--
27
00:01:18,682 --> 00:01:20,142
(SPEAKING NORMALLY)
so listen where
28
00:01:20,140 --> 00:01:22,330
I start this because
this wasn't an accident.
29
00:01:22,330 --> 00:01:23,760
One more time please.
30
00:01:23,757 --> 00:01:26,737
[MUSIC - "MAIN TITLES"]
31
00:01:46,140 --> 00:01:48,540
So there, it started
in a rather odd place,
32
00:01:48,540 --> 00:01:51,120
which is unsettling
even if you don't know
33
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:52,710
why it's kind of unsettling.
34
00:01:52,710 --> 00:01:55,900
It just didn't start where
it felt like it should start.
35
00:01:55,900 --> 00:01:58,300
Now, I'm taking this
very simple theme
36
00:01:58,300 --> 00:02:01,300
and letting it evolve
into something that--
37
00:02:01,300 --> 00:02:03,980
what is-- what is going on here?
38
00:02:03,980 --> 00:02:05,080
There's a mystery to it.
39
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,870
The ostinato begins,
and we've got
40
00:02:07,870 --> 00:02:13,000
just a simple minor key
melody that I'm building.
41
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,730
And this is going to
get dark, and this
42
00:02:15,730 --> 00:02:23,320
is going to go places
that are not happy places.
43
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,190
B section because it's
a full melody with an A
44
00:02:26,190 --> 00:02:28,200
and a B section in a
very traditional way.
45
00:02:33,420 --> 00:02:36,840
And it ends in a classical
(SINGING) da da da da
46
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,480
da, da da.
47
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,610
OK, let's hold it
there, and I'm purposely
48
00:02:41,610 --> 00:02:43,470
ending it in a way that
might be in an opera
49
00:02:43,470 --> 00:02:44,580
or a piece of Mozart.
50
00:02:44,580 --> 00:02:47,260
So this first statement
is getting a melody.
51
00:02:47,258 --> 00:02:49,048
We don't know quite
where it's coming from.
52
00:02:49,050 --> 00:02:50,780
We don't know what
it's exactly saying,
53
00:02:50,780 --> 00:02:54,180
except this isn't necessarily
going to be just a happy story.
54
00:02:54,180 --> 00:02:56,610
It's not so much, how
do you write a theme
55
00:02:56,610 --> 00:02:57,960
for what is Donald Rumsfeld?
56
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,500
That would just be
a villain's theme.
57
00:02:59,502 --> 00:03:00,662
That would be Darth Vader.
58
00:03:00,660 --> 00:03:02,550
So we can't be on the nose.
59
00:03:02,550 --> 00:03:05,390
In other words, I can't go,
Donald Rumsfeld, (SINGING -
60
00:03:05,390 --> 00:03:07,730
"THE IMPERIAL MARCH")
dun, dun dun, dun-dun dun.
61
00:03:07,730 --> 00:03:09,480
(SPEAKING NORMALLY)
That's the way I feel,
62
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:10,800
but that's on the nose.
63
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,290
So a better way to
do it is to lay out
64
00:03:13,290 --> 00:03:14,700
something-- no, this is a film.
65
00:03:14,700 --> 00:03:15,840
It's a documentary.
66
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,340
I'm not going to
tell you who it is.
67
00:03:17,340 --> 00:03:19,680
It's about a man talking
openly about his life.
68
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,010
But I'm trying to say here that,
yeah, it's all these things,
69
00:03:23,010 --> 00:03:26,160
but there's something
going on here,
70
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,500
and I'm just going to hint
at it here in the beginning.
71
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:30,500
I'm just going to give
you a little hints of it.
72
00:03:30,500 --> 00:03:34,630
OK, this next queue, starting
to mess it up a little bit more.
73
00:03:34,630 --> 00:03:35,190
Same motifs.
74
00:03:35,190 --> 00:03:37,940
[MUSIC - "MARIMBA FOGHORN"]
75
00:03:42,770 --> 00:03:48,090
There's an ostinato
that's reminiscent of--
76
00:03:48,090 --> 00:03:50,370
(SINGING) dun dun dun
dun, dun-dun dun-dun dun.
77
00:03:50,372 --> 00:03:52,332
(SPEAKING NORMALLY) This
is my second leitmotif
78
00:03:52,330 --> 00:03:55,390
that I use in the score.
79
00:03:55,390 --> 00:03:58,770
And bringing in
marimbas because I
80
00:03:58,767 --> 00:04:00,347
used all of my
marimbas in this score,
81
00:04:00,350 --> 00:04:01,890
which is another
reason why I thought
82
00:04:01,892 --> 00:04:04,382
it'd be fun to play,
which is, of course,
83
00:04:04,383 --> 00:04:05,803
is another way
that you save money
84
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:06,850
when you don't have
a lot of budget,
85
00:04:06,850 --> 00:04:09,240
is use things that are
lying around in your house.
86
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:14,390
A little bit of drama.
87
00:04:20,860 --> 00:04:23,190
Now, I'm starting to create
some rhythmic action that's
88
00:04:23,190 --> 00:04:25,890
unsettling, but still
in a traditional way.
89
00:04:37,410 --> 00:04:40,480
There it is again, but I've
just come out of a descending
90
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,940
pattern that got--
91
00:04:41,940 --> 00:04:43,690
purposely got all
messed up at the bottom,
92
00:04:43,690 --> 00:04:46,090
like it was trying to do
something chromatically nice,
93
00:04:46,090 --> 00:04:47,520
and they got lost.
94
00:04:47,518 --> 00:04:49,058
They started playing
the wrong notes.
95
00:04:52,888 --> 00:04:54,428
Still keeping the
same pattern going,
96
00:04:54,430 --> 00:04:56,390
but I keep mixing up the
rhythms. (SINGING) Dun
97
00:04:56,388 --> 00:04:58,298
dun dun dun-dun, dun-dun.
98
00:04:58,300 --> 00:05:05,170
Dun dun dun 1 and 2 and 3,
1, 2, 3, bom, 1 and 2 and 3.
99
00:05:05,170 --> 00:05:09,210
(SPEAKING NORMALLY) Also a
rhythm that's hard to count,
100
00:05:09,210 --> 00:05:12,450
and now, we work our
way down to the cello.
