Rodney brought in his 1200s and rescored the film live-on-the-fly with the likes of Oval, Eno, Boards of Canada, Ed Rush & Optical (for climaxy parts) to what was soon a pretty packed house.... He did a perfect job of mood-matching the music to the movie, and the applause afterwards confirmed the crowd thought so too.
