Alexandre Desplat : (3)

" Music is never inherently funny! " - Alexandre Desplat

" I always try to do movies that are different from the ones I’ve done before. " - Alexandre Desplat

" I lived in the Caribbean when I was a teenager, so I learned about Salsa and Cha-Cha and all these Latin Afro-Cuban music like Gillespie and Duke Ellington, also bridged with Jazz. But my mother is Greek, and so I’ve also listened a lot to Greek music. And through the years to Balcanic music to Arabic music because my father loved music from Egypt. " - Alexandre Desplat
