Hello

Funny Games [5023965382825] has four people listed (in big writing) in the opening credits under "Music" and they're presently included in the online database with the "Composer" role.  However, three were dead long before the film was made and the fourth wrote music that was used in the original version of the film ten years earlier.  So none of these people appear to have written any music specifically for the film.  (The movie has no other 'music credits' other than the stuff at the end in small writing where it lists the details of all the individual songs etc used in the usual way.)

Do they get any sort of entry in the online database?

It's my 50th birthday today.

Thanks  -  Paul

Agreed, if they music wasn't written for that film, it doesn't get a credit.

And none of them gets a credit
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Nope, no credit.  Also happy birthday!

I am genuinely quite touched that people have posted pictures and messages, thank you.

Getting old sucks. I can't say I'm enjoying the experience. It feels a bit too much like I'm in Logan's Run; except Jenny Agutter isn't wondering around in a very skimpy outfit. I once shook her hand for real in the revolving restaurant at the top of the BT Tower in London; she probably doesn't remember, but I do...

It was the same day I met someone I was about to start managing at work for the first time (other than at her interview).  For some reason I ended up staying in her house that night (no not in 'that' way) and accidentally pulling a shelf off the wall in a drunken haze.

I'm really not very good at being a grown-up; (I was pretty rubbish at being a young person too).
