” marked a tonal shift from his nightmare-inducing films “Midsommar” and “Hereditary.”
In the feature, which tackles inherited trauma and mommy issues, Joaquin Phoenix plays Beau, who finds himself on an Odyssean journey to return home after his mother’s untimely death. To score the film, Aster recruited “Midsommar” composer , but, unlike their last collaboration, creating the music of “Beau Is Afraid” was a “long and arduous process” as they worked to crack the sound of Beau’s journey.and how one cue, “Suburban Dream,” helped unlock the film’s sonic landscape.I reached out to him because I had written “Midsommar” while listening to his music, specifically his first self-titled album as the Haxan Cloak. It put me in a space that felt inextricable. I knew I wanted him to score it if he would be up for it.
What went into composing “Beau Is Afraid,” particularly in that last act with the epic scoring around his mother, played by Patti LuPone?It’s a difficult thing to unpack. This one threw me where I was like, “Fuck, this is not the same thing,” and it was a lot of hard work.The film keeps changing, and you jump from world to world, and that tone change changes in each world. The rhythms change a lot, and that still needed to be cohesive. It was hard for us to find those themes.
