Agatha Christie's 'A Haunting in Venice' Hits Cinemas on 15 September 2023
A new Agatha Christie adaptation, 'A Haunting in Venice', hits cinemas on 15 September 2023. Directed by Kenneth Branagh, the film sees him reprise his role as Hercule Poirot, investigating a murder mystery during a séance. The score, composed by Hildur Guðnadóttir, known for her work on 'Joker' and 'TÁR', adds a darker, slower, and more weighty tone to reflect Poirot's inner turmoil and wartime experiences.
Guðnadóttir's love for Agatha Christie runs deep, with her mother reading a Christie novel daily during her pregnancy. Her grandmother, a scientist, also found solace in Christie's stories. Branagh wanted the score to echo Poirot's complex emotions and past, leading Guðnadóttir to draw inspiration from post-war Italian composers to immerse the film in its Venetian setting. She was involved in the scoring process from the early stages of editing.
The score for 'A Haunting in Venice' is a blend of acoustic and electronic instruments, likely including strings, percussion, and synthesizers, as heard in orchestral performances of the film's music.
Kenneth Branagh's 'A Haunting in Venice', an adaptation of 'Hallowe'en Party', promises a thrilling murder mystery with a darker, more atmospheric score composed by Hildur Guðnadóttir. The film's release on 15 September 2023 is eagerly anticipated by Christie fans and cinema-goers alike.
