The Business

Scoring Film; Hollywood Reporter 'Kvetchfest'

We talk with super-star film composer Danny Elfman about what it takes to make great movie music.  Plus, the pain and the pity of reporting from the red carpet. This week's edition of The Business will not be heard on KCRW as it will be pre-empted by special holiday programming.
