Composer Harry Gregson-Williams has been crafting film scores since the 1990s, but “The Last Duel” gave him the opportunity to try something new. The Ridley Scott-directed film, which tells the story of a duel that took place in the 1300s between a man and his wife’s rapist, is enhanced with an evocative score that transports you to its medieval setting. But there are also notable action moments throughout the film that are presented without an underscore, with Gregson-Williams tasked with providing appropriate intro and outro music to those scenes. “This was new for me,” says Gregson-Williams in an exclusive new interview for Gold Derby. Watch the full interview above.
The composing process was also unusual in where Gregson-Williams began. Scott asked the composer to take note of the last page of the script, which included a scene that was ultimately deleted where Marguerite (Jodie Comer) sings to her young child.
