    Something a little different for you on our latest episode of Soundtracking, as we approach our latest film from 3 perspectives, all of which are obviously very much focussed on the same objective. Namely, to make the best movie that they can. And boy, have our guests succeeded. Netflix's Train Dreams is co-written and directed by Clint Bentley, who has admirable support from his cinematographer Adolpho Veloso and composer Bryce Dessner. We dive deep into their collaboration.
