Title: Trespass Against Us
Post by: Wolkenkrabber on Jan 17, 2016, 21:42
Trespass has started to be mentioned in "anticipated films of 2016" lists on ye olde internet, so it might be time to have a thread for it (as we did on the old forum).

(http://i67.tinypic.com/azf1j6.jpg)

IMDB has been updated with a new still image (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3305308/) since I last checked it; in December I think.
I suspect the image has been taken from the Film 4 (http://www.film4.com/reviews/2016/trespass-against-us) website. which also tells us a bit more about the story. 
The film is also reported on HERE (http://www.ioncinema.com/news/festival-predictions/2016-sundance-adam-smith-trespass-against-us) and HERE (http://www.moviepilot.de/movies/trespass-against-us). Though we still don't have a date other than 2016.
There's nothing here to suggest that the film won't have a Chemical soundtrack as we expected. So lets hope it's as good as Hanna!

How about a gushing actress clip from 2014?

It would make sense that Let Us Build A City may have been for this movie as it was pointed out its lyrics were from the Bible. As this movie is called "Trespass Against Us," a part of the Lord's Prayer.

Whilst we're waiting for InChem to tell us how he knows the release date for Trespass, I thought I'd mention that IMDB was updated on the 2nd of June (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3305308/).  So we now know that's it's 98 minutes long and rated R for the USA. It'll be distributed by A24 in the USA (A24 tend to distribute nice little films, though often with minimal publicity, eg: Green Room) and Lionsgate in the UK. And there's a full cast list on there now.

Of course Guardian gives a 2 star review. Come release date they'll be glowing, whatever's contrarian.

I'm okay if the story is weak. Excited for the score and Adam's directorial choices in a full length action flick - should be something off the beaten track!

Slightly tad tiny little disappointing news update, the score is not by The Chemical Brothers... but by Tom Rowlands.

Of course, it is still cool to get a score from Tom, but a part of me wanted another score with the Brothers together.

I'm betting on a yes for the second half of the trailer. Sounds very professional but not very conducive to home listening.

Those accents are...interesting. They're like a cross between an Irish accent and an English country bumpkin accent (EDIT: Its's based around Cheltenham/Gloucestershire)
Some Irish "travellers" (gypsies) living in England have good strong Irish accents even though they may live primarily outside of Ireland. Others are more mixed up. I guess they've gone for the latter here. (My accent is kinda London-Irish incidentally.)

I didn't get most of the trailer :D I'll have to watch again with subtitles
Title: Re: Trespass Against Us
Post by: Csar on Sep 22, 2016, 21:50
Oh yeah, I believe there is. That rising synth at about 1:10 (there's even one at the beginning, barely noticable) and beyond definately sounds RARish. There's sadly no real music in it that would give us a clue as to where the soundtrack might go.

Great to finally see a trailer for this. I was kind of longing for some tidbits.

Btw, the second half kinda has got little Bahnhof Rumble/ Hanna vs.Marissa  feel to it.
Title: Re: Trespass Against Us
Post by: WhiteNoise on Sep 22, 2016, 23:52
From 1:09 on it sounds like score. The drums have a "cinematic Chems" sound, and the synths are almost there... sounds a little restrained to be honest. If any of it is Tom's it's much more subtle than Hanna was.

Not sure, and not too much to comment on!

Film looks good though.

Trespass Against Us at the BFI London Film Festival, Sunday 16th October 2016, 3.15pm. (also Fri & Sat).
Followed by Q&A with Adam Smith and Alastair Siddons.

Skyscraper's litte film review (I reckon it's spoiler-free as long as you've seen the trailer)
Spoiler

"It's got potentials"

The first words to appear on screen are "animal kingdom" – the name of a production company involved with Trespass. It seems appropriate if you've seen the film Animal Kingdom, as both films seem to share a similar approach. Both take a gritty "real life" stance of observing a family of um, "not quite angels" and their machinations. We root for members of those families despite their faults and crimes... but always with a slight detachment. Like a cinematic fly on the wall.

I think the trailer represents Trespass pretty accurately.  As for the supposedly weak story?  It's good enough. It doesn't need to be any more complicated than it is. It's a study of these people's way of life. The drama of Chad's desire for his kids to succeed, and his struggles with his dad are enough to hold your attention.  But fear not, there is a story. As you've probably guessed, it involves theft and getaway cars.

Brendan Gleeson is fine but not as likeable as he was in say, The Guard (nor is he meant to be).  The main star of the film is undoubtedly Fassbender. His presence raises the quality of the whole film. I didn't dislike him before, but his performance in this small indie film makes me realise he has real acting chops.

As for the accents; correction time again. They're not meant to be Irish at all. I think Gleeson's accent slips a bit in the trailer which misled me. But they're meant to be pure Gloucester accents (as per the documentary embedded further below).  Adam confirmed there won't be subtitles for America, so good luck with that!

To sum up, Trespass combines drama, thrills, sadness and even a couple of big laughs (oh, and an RAR score!). The performances and interaction of the cast are what keeps you engaged.  It's a small film and it's not for everyone, but I genuinely enjoyed it. Even without the Chemical connections, I would watch this.
Pretentious IMDB-type-score: 7.9.

Thoughts on the music (very mild film spoiler re: religious discussion in the film that won't ruin it for you.)
Spoiler
By and large this is very different from Hanna or anything else "Chemical". Adam explained in the Q&A after the film that Tom brought him a very "Chemical Brothers" score. But Adam said: no thanks(!). He asked Tom to go back and do something else. Cue Adam humorously impersonating Tom: "But then why ask me to do it? What do you want?" (comically exasperated voice).  Adam reassured Tom that he did want him to do the soundtrack... but less Chemical.

So Tom enlisted the help of some 'real' musicians and came back with the score now attached to the film.  It mostly involves strings and piano, and at times it sounds not unlike the music on the documentary further below. But there is that slightly "wonky" vibe that Tom loves so much. So if you want to hear Tom's Chemical wonkiness manifested in a small, strings-y score, you better see Trespass.

Having said that, there are still some electronic bits. Most memorably during the "yellow car" chase that's in the trailer. What sounds like a handheld Casio keyboard takes the lead over some more substantial sounding synthiness, and there are breakbeats in there too. I think there were some other brief moments of electronica as well (backmasked vocals/noises). But this is a much more subtle score than Hanna, and as it was my first time watching the film I found myself trying to follow the dialogue and then occasionally remembering: LISTEN TO THE MUSIC! It might be easier to concentrate on the score with a second viewing.

I asked Adam in the Q&A afterwards if the score would be released. His reply: "I don't know but I hope so. I also hope that the 'Chemical Brothers' stuff we didn't use will be released. Or maybe some if it has, I don't know ".  Sounds like Adam hasn't listened to all of BITE, otherwise he'd know either way. Outrageous!

The closing credits relating to the music were:
Music Supervisor: Kle Savidge
Harmonium & Piano: Tim Rice-Oxley (keyboard player for boring polite-rock band Keane (https://www.discogs.com/artist/234647-Keane))
Violin: Emma Smith
Viola & Cello: Vince Sipprell
Score engineered by Tom Rowlands & Steve Dub
Recorded at: Rowlands Audio Research.

I believe Emma Smith and Vince Sipprell founded the "Elysium Quartet". Having googled them, it appears that Mr Sipprell (who worked with Hot Chip, Elbow & New Order) sadly took his own life in January 2015. This makes me think that the score was probably finished by then. (I know it's a bit ghoulish to Sherlock this but I didn't know he was dead when I googled him, and um, logic springs eternal.)

This would mean that it is possible for Let Us Build a City and Wo Ha to have been on the original score. Yet still I have my doubts. Why? Well mostly it's just a hunch about whether that music would fit the film (or am I just agreeing with Adam?). I understand the biblical connection mentioned by others, but Let Us Build A City is a reference to the Tower of Babel (Old Testament). Although there are in fact, religious conversations in Trespass, they almost exclusively refer to Jesus (New Testament), so the biblical logic isn't necessarily watertight. I still think the above two tracks were for Now You See Me, but... no, I can't prove it.

So I guess the bad news is that this isn't going to be a Hanna No2 type soundtrack (thanks Adam!). And  I'm particularly "guilty" of hoping that it would be. I'd be interested to hear the electronic bits without the film rattling over the top (and the strings-y stuff too), so here's hoping it gets released. Oh, and if there is ever another "Ask Tom Rowlands" opportunity, I bagsy the question about unused "Chemical" score from Trespass!

What I can remember from the Q&A with Adam and Alastair (mild spoiler, sort of, but not really)
Spoiler

BFI Host Woman: Tell us how you came to write the script, Alastair.

Alastair: The script is based on a documentary I was involved with around 2003/2004. So it's based on real people. Chad is a real person (discusses this for a while).

Woman in Audience: Do these real people know about the film? (Damn I was going to ask that!)

Adam: Yes, they saw it here on Friday night for the first time. The real Chad brought his family. They were quite noisy as they cheered at the screen. Good noisy!

Bloke In audience:  Who made the film's soundtrack? (Grr. I was going to ask about that too, you bastard!). See the reply in the "Music" section of this post.

Mic comes to me: Um, I think my question just got answered. But ...will the soundtrack get released? (see the reply in "Music" section of this post).

Alastair Siddons:  (said something I couldn't hear)

Me: While you're there Alastair, was the documentary you worked on called "Summer With The Johnsons"?

Alastair: Yes.

Adam: You've done your homework.

Me:  It's on Youtube! (I'm now hogging the mic)...  Also Adam , I know today's film was introduced as your first, but it's really your second following Don't Think. That was a very flashy visual film, whilst today's film was all about the script and the drama. If a Hollywood big-shot offered you a choice of a big budget visual film or smaller budget film with a great script, which way would you go?

Adam: That would depend on my bank balance at the time! No, it would actually depend on the individual project.

Old Grandpa in the audience: I had a nephew who had a choice of joining or avoiding the lifestyle of these travellers...(Tells long story that sends everyone to sleep. Which would probably be fine if he was sat next to the fireplace with his pipe and slippers.)

Adam and Alastair: "    "

BFI Host Woman:  Well thanks for coming everyone, Byeee


Friday night's Q&A which included Fassebender et al was professionally recorded by the BFI but I don't think it discusses the music coz y'know...Fassbender.
https://twitter.com/BFI/status/787665782054481920


The documentary,"Summer With The Johnsons" on which Trespass is based is in eight small parts on Youtube or one hour long part on Vimeo. Trespass scriptwriter Alastair Siddons has his name in the closing credits of this documentary. They say, "Write what you know", and boy did he!

Skyscraper, thanks for this great (or not so great) insight!!
The news about its score are dampening my anticipation a little. I didn't necessarily expect a Hanna 2.0, nor did I want something in that direction. But less Chemical in its essence isn't really something I was hoping for as well. What I was hoping for in fact is a score that carried the Chems/ Tom's undeniable electronic influenced thumbprint which made Hanna so special. Something you couldn't hear anywhere else. While I understand that Adam needed something different with his vision for the movie, I totally get Tom's position too.
Well, I hope it'll be at least distinct and 'Chemical' enough from most of contemporary soundtracks that came out in recent years. Let's see when it's out here in Germany.

Btw, did you, as a native local, have any trouble understanding the dialogue (because you mentioned "following" and I remember those short articles about the movie and one of them mentioned its thick accents)?

I'll be interested to hear your opinion on this. I'm starting to wonder if I did miss other notable electronic bits besides the yellow car chase. If you go to the Trespass website (http://trespassagainstusmovie.com/), you'll find they've updated it and it now has about 37 seconds of electronic-ish (I presume Chemical) music on there with no talking over it. I don't honestly remember where this was in the film; maybe I was too engrossed to notice the music.
The synopsis (final paragraph) says: "a pulsating score by The Chemical Brothers", (rather than Tom). Not sure if that's a mistake or...

Incidentally the website took several minutes to load for me. Different browsers seem to have different response times; worst: IE, then FF, best: Chrome.

Thanks Steve from the FB group for the heads up!

Nice little interview that Adam gave here:

Quote from: Jason Gorber from Dork Shelf

You'd worked with the Chemical Brothers extensively – Could you talk about the score for the film?

In a way I didn't want it to be a full Chemical Brothers soundtrack, like to sound like The Chemical Brothers. Obviously one of the chase scenes does a bit, but I wanted it to have this timeless feel. The Chemical Brothers' music has got this raw, anarchic energy. It's almost like every time it becomes too pop-y, a crash comes in and some gnarly electronic sound. It also has this huge emotional power and really moves people. That's why I thought Tom [Rowlands] was perfect to do the film.

I sent him the script and he kind of started writing stuff after the first read through. He was really into it. But we did come to a bit of a crossroads. I was like, "Look, this can't be synthy instrumentation because it needs to have a timeless feel"-which is why we shot it on 35mm. We talked about the palette having more classical instrumentation. At one point he all like, "Why don't you just get somebody classical to do it? Why do you want me to do it?", and I was like, "Because you're going to do something different and something brilliant!"

The nice thing is that we've been working together for 20 years and it's healthy to have these conversations. I don't know if they're going to release it or not but there's a load of more typical Chemical Brothers stuff that he made for us that never made it to the film that are great, great tunes.

http://dorkshelf.com/2017/01/27/trespass-against-us-director-adam-smith-on-fassbender-gleeson-the-chemical-brothers-and-doctor-who/

So I understand now that Adam wanted Tom for his way of approaching his music, his style, his unique, creative mind but with less electronic and more "traditional" instrumentation. I get it. The trailer sounds pretty Rowlandsky to me. Did that kind of "theme" occur in the movie?
And when will this finally be released here in Germany??

I don't know if they're going to release it or not but there's a load of more typical Chemical Brothers stuff that he made for us that never made it to the film that are great, great tunes.

I book a plane to London, pay a cab to the RAR-Studios and throw exact every 15 minutes a lemon at Tom's head if he decides not to release it!

An edit of the yellow car chase with the closest thing to a "Chemical" tune on the soundtrack.

Skyscraper, did they use those cues from the trailer I posted on the previous page too?

I think so, that slightly seasick sound is familiar. It's a while since I've seen the film now. I can't help thinking that some other people around here have seen the film more recently than me. It's starting to hit cinemas comercially this Friday. Maybe those people could pretend they saw it legally and let us know their thoughts (!).

Incidentally, following on from the american Guardian.com review a while ago, this piece was in my newspaper on Saturday: Another British gangster movie... (https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/feb/27/trespass-against-us-british-gangster-movie-michael-fassbender)

Thanks! I like these cues, they're subtle but noticeably Rowlandsih. I wonder when this movie will come to the silver screen here in Germany, because I can't find any German release dates yet.

Well I was hoping that some of you might have voiced an opinion on this one by now; I don't really want to dominate this thread. The film came and went here in the space of about ten days. But at that same time it was released on DVD/Bluray in the USA, and also for rental from Amazon.com. Initially you could rent it for the price of a milkshake at Jack Rabbit Slims, and now it's even cheaper at 99 cents, or free if you avail of Amazon's 30 days free trial of Prime (https://www.amazon.com/Trespass-Against-Us-Michael-Fassbender/dp/B01N1TALSY). So surely some of you American forumites have watched it by now?!?

Critical opinion on Rotten Tomatoes (https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/trespass_against_us_2017/) is mixed with a score of 57%. Did some of you dislike it so much you didn't even want to come here and say it? Well maybe...

Having seen it a second time, my thoughts on the music are that the second half of the film is dominated by the "sting quartet" type stuff whilst the first half has more of the exciting/interesting electronic bits & pieces.

Csar, if you're reading this I can confirm that the default music on the Website (http://trespassagainstusmovie.com/) is in there, as is all the music on the first trailer. But the second trailer (https://youtu.be/cbywW-rVN_g?t=1s) has some stuff that I don't think made it on to the cinematic relaese, namely the bits from 0.55 to 01.14 and from 1.25 to 1.50. Which is a shame because they perhaps best represent the kind of thing I would have liked as a Tom/Chemical soundtrack.

According to Fanboy Nation (http://fanboynation.com/trespass-against-us-2016/), on the Bluray there are "a couple of special features. One is a featurette about the making of the film...The other featurette explores the film's soundtrack by the Chemical Brothers and it also dives into Adam Smith's longstanding working relationship with the electronic musicians." I wonder if the bits I mentioned from the second trailer, (and perhaps more) might feature on the Bluray. If anyone feels like parting with 11 bucks (https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B01MTAE43L/ref=tmm_blu_new_olp_sr?ie=UTF8&condition=new&qid=&sr=) to find out, please let us know. I wonder if a clever person would be able to rip some of the audio from the Bluray...

In related news, Adam did some interviews to promote the film, and was asked about future projects, as you can see in this ropey youtube clip (https://youtu.be/ouuyUjMEpDA?t=10m30s) he says he is working on something with Wiley at the moment, i.e  this guy. (https://youtu.be/Bxjdg_D5YQY?t=1s). And he says he is working on another project too. I suspect the other project is Plug Me In for 2018. See HERE (http://europe.advertisingweek.com/live/-time-inc-2017-03-21-1715) at 22.55 just before the end. Tom & Adam were -according to ChemBros twitter- also taking part in that talk, but their bit doesn't appear to have been recorded.

Oh! I'll watch it tonight then.

I haven't seen it yet since it's felt the film was in production... still in production... and suddenly screened, released in a much smaller release than I expected, then out like a light. Wasn't keeping track of it with the bumpy release schedule.

I've not seen / heard anything except what I've read here, and the car chase sequence, so I'll let you know what I think.

I don't understand the way this film being released.
This is an English film which had it's theathrical release early march 2017 (I think) and will be getting the bluray release early july.
On the other side of the ocean it's already released on bluray and it's allready on sale (!!!) on amazon digital.
And there is still souncdtrack/score released on either cd, vinyl or digital which makes me believe there never will.

So what's up with this film? Anyone any ideas on this strange release? I'm waiting for the bluray cause of before mentioned extra's. And really curiuos about the Tom score.

I wished I could already share my opinion on it but it's still not released here in Germany. I tend to believe it will never get released here..

That's a bummer. I really liked that bit and it was subtle enough in my opinion to fit Adam's notion for a less tradional Chemical but still noticeably Tom-kind-of-score that feels sort of ageless.

Since this will probably be my only chance to watch it, as it looks like, this would be a terrific bonus treat! Hopefully it's going to be a region-free release (with subtitles, because, you know, dialect 'n stuff :D).

Yeah, that's really weird. It feels more like a local independent type of movie that's being treated with ignorance by the big companies.

It's part of Tom's score for the film. Probably will never be released.

I finally got to see the movie! Well, it was sort of a tough watch, to be honest. The tone was a bit depressing (did have some funny parts too) and I was always hoping he could get out of all this mess and free himself and his family (maybe he did by what he did at the end?).
The soundtrack was subtle and calmer than I expected but I really liked Tom's recurring theme (https://youtu.be/FALj-2h2zQg?t=38s) and electronic underscored parts like the burglary scene. I was hoping during the credits the main theme would come up one last time, maybe as sort of an extended version, but sadly it didn't. This needs to get a release in one form or another in my opinion.
