Dickon Hinchliffe scoring ‘The Fields’
Dickon Hinchliffe has recently finished the score for the upcoming thriller The Fields. The movie marks the first major feature directorial effort for Ami Canaan Mann (daughter of Michael Mann who is producing the film). The Fields stars Sam Worthington, Chloe Moretz and Jeffrey Dean Morgan and centers on a series of unsolved murders in industrial wastelands surrounding Gulf Coast refineries, where as many as 70 bodies have turned up over the past two decades. The film, which was originally called Texas Killing Fields is expected to be released later this year.
