"The score for THE RIGHT CHOICE was one of detail and placing. We wanted the audience to feel this was a generic comedy at the start but to gradually feel more uncomfortable as the film went on. So the scores' main purpose was to guide the audience down this path. Traditional plucked strings helped set the mood, then introducing odd harmonic movements with strange sounds and percussion created that subtle uncomfortable feel."
