“I was stunned, absolutely floored,” director James Cameron told Variety.

“I think it’s the best space photography ever done, I think it’s the best space film ever done, and it’s the movie I’ve been hungry to see for an awful long time.”

When I spoke with Mr. Price recently during a phone interview on his work for Edgar Wright’s THE WORLD’S END, I asked him about his score for GRAVITY. At the time he was mastering the soundtrack for Cuarón’s film and was calling from the studio in London where he was putting the finishing touches to the album.

“GRAVITY has been an amazing experience. Because of where the film is based, up in space, and there’s no sound in space so there are no rules. The music can do things that it wouldn’t ordinarily do because the conventions of the sound in the film are gone. It’s been great fun playing with the conventions of how we can do things and doing them a little differently. I’m very excited about people seeing it because of what Alfonso has achieved – from the writing through the way it looks. It’s a complete experience so I’m looking forward to people seeing it in the cinemas and having the experience, both visually and with the music.”

“Of all the films I’ve ever seen in 3D, (some people love it and some people don’t,) it’s the most immersive – the experience. Being up in space and the way it’s been shot… the tension is quite incredible and it’s a very emotional film as well. The whole thing is a real journey with amazing performances and everyone is very proud of it.”

Sandra Bullock plays Dr. Ryan Stone, a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (George Clooney) in command of his last flight before retiring. But on a seemingly routine spacewalk, disaster strikes. The shuttle is destroyed, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone – tethered to nothing but each other and spiraling out into the blackness.

The deafening silence tells them they have lost any link to Earth…and any chance for rescue. As fear turns to panic, every gulp of air eats away at what little oxygen is left.

But the only way home may be to go further out into the terrifying expanse of space.
