A small article about the music.

Remarkably, Dave McLaughlin's nearly finished 'On Broadway.' "We wanted to be done by September because that's the deadline for submissions to Sundance," McLaughlin said, referring to the film festival that's held in January. The movie, about an Irish-American playwright staging a show in the back of a pub, began shooting in Boston last May with a cast that included Joe McIntyre, Eliza Dushku, and Mike O'Malley. McLaughlin, who wrote and directed the movie, is working with Buffalo Tom's Bill Janovitz on the score. "I gave three composers the same scene and asked them to write something," said McLaughlin. "What Bill did had the level of emotional variation I was looking for." Janovitz, who performs the next two Wednesdays at Lizard Lounge, has never scored a film, but he's a big fan of movie music, particularly Ry Cooder's compositions for "Paris, Texas."
