‘Monster’ Director Kore-eda Hirokazu on Working With Composer Ryuichi Sakamoto on One of His Last Musical Compositions

It would mark the first time in years that the legendary composer behind “The Last Emperor” and “The Revenant” had worked on a Japanese title

Sakamoto contributed music for two scenes in the film, including an important scene with Saori as she confronts Mr. Hori on insulting and hitting the children at school. Sakamoto’s music underscores that moment. He also wrote the end cue. Unable to give him a full composition, Sakamoto gave the director access to use music from his last solo album “12.” “He is such a unique talent,” Kore-eda says.

In working with them, he took a different approach to working with the boys. “In the past, I’d give them their lines and their personalities and vocabulary would create the dialogue. In this case, there was a script and they had to stick to that.” He continues, “So, for me, it was about looking at the emotional shifts within the children that became important.”
