About this Quote

Carter Burwell's quote suggests that he discovered the experience of dealing with a scary movie, Psycho III, to be a lot easier than dealing with a romantic comedy. This could be due to the fact that horror movies frequently rely on suspense and stress to create a sense of fear, whereas romantic comedies need a more nuanced technique to capture the feelings of the characters. Burwell might have discovered it easier to create a rating for a horror film since it was more simple and less mentally demanding. He may have discovered it harder to develop a score for a romantic funny due to the fact that it required him to catch the nuances of the characters' feelings. Overall, Burwell's quote suggests that he found horror movies to be easier to work on than romantic funnies.
