I first met Tyler when he came in to meet me regarding composing the music for Dawn of the Dead . He was not trying
(2:35) to be cool and standoffish, as many of the others I had met with had been. He was instantly enthusiastic for the potential
(3:18) of not just the score, but for the film itself. I think that's what struck me — it wasn't about my pictures and his music,
it was about what they could be together, that there was not one without the other. Music is the soul of a movie, it is the
(2:18) part of a movie that moves through you, that physically reaches out and touches the viewer, and Tyler understood that.

23 Glory (1:44)
When it came to 300 , I went to Tyler in the earliest stages. Before writing the script, before I drew a single frame, I went
24 Message For The Queen (2:32) to Tyler for help and inspiration, two things he continues to unselfishly supply me with to this day. For me, Tyler's score
for 300 moves the film into mythology, it cauterizes the images as you view them, making them something they could
25 Remember Us (3:00)
never be alone. He is an artist and a friend. So, as you listen to his score and feel the wounds in your imagination burning
26 To Victory (Philip Steir's Sacrifice For Sparta Remix) (5:36)* closed, shut your eyes and see your own movie come to life in your mind. It works for me.
