"...HOTEL often has the free-form, surly swing of Charles Mingus's thumping improvisations, including a persuasive self-regard that dares you to look away..."

Hotel

"There is an excellent score, the work of the underrated Anthony Marinelli, which enhances much of the film's tone. Marinelli's spare note clusters, floating in dead air as it were, emphasise the silence and loss in lives touched by the gun. They suggest how much grief isolates the central character from all but the most essential relationships, where he can only really communicate by writing letters to a dead woman."

"...Anthony Marinelli contributes an outstandingly melancholic soundtrack..."

-Andrew Wright, Portland Mercury

“...scenes are composed to a beautiful score by Anthony Marinelli.”

  Besides some wintry settings, there is an excellent score, the work of the underrated Anthony Marinelli, which enhances much of the film's tone.

The use of sound is again impressive and few contemporary directors can claim to use sound production to such innovative and exhilarating effect. Complementing the film's many textural assets is the typically assured and haunting score, courtesy of Figgis himself and co-composer Anthony Marinelli.
