Hehehe. That just made me laugh! Carter Burwell is the COMPOSER of the soundtrack. And it is spelled L-E-G-I-T-I-M-A-C-Y.
And why would someone so thoroughly have to "analyze" a "film" that you already aknowledged as un-artistic? Just because you use words like "circumvent" and "wholly" doesn't mean you make a better point.
So lighten up. The score sucked. And the movie was quite forgettable.
