Alex Wurman recently recorded his score for the upcoming romantic comedy The Switch with the Carondelet Film Orchestra in New Orleans. The movie previously entitled The Baster stars Jason Bateman, Jennifer Aniston, Juliette Lewis and Jeff Goldblum. The movie directed by Josh Gordon and Will Speck (Blades of Glory) centers around an unmarried 40-year-old woman who turns to a turkey baster in order to become pregnant. When she reunites with her best friend, who has been living with a secret seven years later, she finds out that he replaced her preferred sperm sample with his own. The Switch is set to be released on August 20 by Miramax. To see a few pictures from the scoring sessions, click here.
Wurman’s music was recently featured in the HBO Biopic Temple Grandin about an autistic woman who has become one of top scientists in humane livestock handling. The movie starring Claire Danes and David Strathairn was directed by Mick Jackson (L.A. Story, The Bodyguard) and received mostly positive reviews.
The composer also has the comedy Overnight coming up. The movie starring Rachel Blanchard and James D’Arcy was completed last year and is awaiting a release date.
