639: Martin McDonagh On The Music Of Wild Horse Nine [CONTAINS SPOILERS!]

Our latest guest on Soundtracking is the inimitable writer/director Martin McDonagh, who joins Edith to discuss his latest movie Wild Horse Nine, recorded live at Everyman King's Cross as part of our Soundtracking Film Club in partnership with Range Rover. Range Rover is a brand synonymous with mastery in all its forms, championing those who push boundaries, define standards and create enduring impact. Both Soundtracking and Everyman align naturally with Range Rover’s core principles relating to leadership, cultural authority and creative excellence, so we're absolutely thrilled they have chosen to support our podcast, which was recorded in front of an audience following a screening of the film.
Starring John Malkovich, Sam Rockwell and Steve Buscemi, Wild Horse Nine tells the story of two CIA operatives who are dispatched to Easter Island ahead of the 1973 coup d'etat in Chile - where the longtime partners wrestle with dark pasts and present conspiracies. As well as a beautiful score by Carter Burwell, it features numerous needle drops, which we explore in detail.
