Where did you happen to find those quotes you used of Branagh describing that it was vitally necessary to create a score for the world on the verge of the 1990's? I can't find the original quote anywhere, although you are not the only website that has credited Branagh with that quotation. I'm trying to write a research paper and would appreciate the citation haha. none of the websites have cited where that quote is from.
excellent review, by the way. Thanks!
