- Making the Music of 'Where the Wild Things Are'
-
A short five-minute documentary – shot by Lance Bangs, who frequently collaborates with Spike Jonze – about making and recording the music for “Where the Wild Things Are.”
To watch Spike Jonze and Karen O be so cool, free, and empowering with actual kids, nonprofessional kids, as they sing background vocals for the music – that makes me so happy. I wish all adults interacted with kids this way.
