Композитор Lorne Balfe о своей работе над Now and Then для фильма Аргайл.
«Музыканты не знали, что они записывают песню Битлз. Кроме того, есть хор, который поет это. Они все пели песню и никто из них не знал, что это Битлз.
Они думали, что ты это написал?
Да, они, вероятно, подумали: "Наконец-то он может написать хорошую мелодию!"

https://variety.com/2024/artisans/global/argylle-beatles-now-and-then-lorne-balfe-12358...What was the weirdest moment for you on this?
The Beatles. The Beatles were never part of my life and all of a sudden, “Now and Then” appears, where it’s the Holy Grail. Every time Elly is writing, that song triggers her all the time. We had that about a year and a half before it got released.
Matthew had been looking for a song that was Elly’s trigger. He wanted a song that was part of her history. And it was as if the stars aligned at the right time. Giles Martin [son of the Beatles’ longtime producer George Martin] was speaking to Matthew and said, “I’ve discovered this song and I’ve been working on it” and it just clicked. It was the most unique song I’ve ever got to work with.
And you had to keep it a secret.
Yes.
Were you allowed to tell anybody? Did you feel like a spy?
I played it to my wife. When we were recording it [with an orchestra and choir] we didn’t use the title. I didn’t know what it was when I heard it. I think it meant a lot to many people that this was the last [Beatles] song. So being able to have an orchestra and write cues and put it into the movie was, I think, now when you process it, it was an honor because it’s not something you [usually] get to do. Also, having a choir singing it. Afterwards in the break, you heard them all singing the song and none of them knew it was the Beatles.
Did they think you’d written it?
Yeah, they probably thought “Finally he can write a good tune!”
