Hans Zimmer on “Thin Red Line”

This was very possibly my first interview with Hans Zimmer. At the time, he was in the middle of The Prince of Egypt and — to my mind, one of his most thoughtful and evocative scores — The Thin Red Line. I couldn’t get Terence Malick on the phone (no surprise) but I did get Jeffrey Katzenberg and Red Line producer Grant Hill. And lots of quotable quotes from Hans, of course.
