EntertainmentEntertainmentExtraThe Sound of 'The Dark Knight'The Sound of 'The Dark Knight'The Associated PressComposers Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard reunite to score the music for "The Dark Knight." The two previously worked together in 2005 for 'Batman Begins' and caught up with The AP to talk about the project. (July 18)[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] [Notes:Batman movie clip]In movies, music often sets the mood ...In "The Dark Knight," music tells the story almost as much as the plot itself. [Notes:Sound up on clip with strong soundtrack] [Notes:Zimmer/Howard at NYC premiere, backtimed to the sound bite]For that, credit composers Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard, who caught up with The AP at the movie's world premiere in New York. SOUNDBITE:HANS ZIMMER: "There was a weird, quiet intensity from the go."JAMES NEWTON HOWARD: "Was it exhausting?"HANS ZIMMER: "Thank you for the question. It was exhausting. I don't think I've worked so hard. I mean right at the end, the last session, I was seriously afraid."JAMES NEWTON HOWARD: "The only reason we stopped recording is because Hans fell on the couch and said, 'I'm done.'"HANS ZIMMER: "Actually, Chris said, 'I think we've recorded enough.'" Zimmer, an Oscar winner, and Howard, a seven-time nominee, previously collaborated on 'Batman Begins' in 2005. Combined, their films have grossed more than five billion dollars. [Notes:Handout video from Warner Bros. of performance] The composers performed the movie's theme song -- complete with a laser light show -- at the premiere. They say putting together the 14-song soundtrack was tough, but collaboratingwith the cast and crew made things easier.SOUNDBITE: Hans Zimmer "You start with a conversation, you start with a conversation between us, between Chris. You go to the set, you read the script, you talk to Gary Oldman, you know. You grab anyone you can because all you have is a blank page and you're just feeling it up with ideas, and then you sit there and you struggle, and eventually you have to stop procrastinating."Fans seem to like what they hear ... The Dark Knight soundtrack is climbing the i-Tunes most popular list. [Notes:Close with strong soundtrack clip from movie] Ed Donahue, The Associated Press.(****END****)
