Production
Guadagnino said of the score:[1]
"I always show Trent and Atticus the full movie without any music first. Then we start talking about principles and ideas. In this case it was all about creating doubt. They brought me these extraordinary piano notes that underline the question of do we believe this person or not. This theme of doubt starts up in the first scene and keeps expanding. And then, around the structure they created, we brought in pop music as well as contemporary composers like John Adams."
