Captive (or Captive, Chapter Two) is the third primary Wingless Films production, released in December 2010 alongside the formation of Wingless Films itself, and was initially conceived as a collaboration with Five String Productions. Following on from the abundance of thematic material in our previous film, Bounded, I approached Captive afresh, intending to keep the soundtrack as an underscore to the action.
However, the film contains one primary motif: The Assassin's Theme (The Knives), which is played in full in several tracks (notably track two) and first appears in the score as part of the opening "Wingless Sting", and during "Phone Call". Track four ("Gaining Access") features rising cellos, and is inverted in track six ("The Aftermath") as the assassin respectively enters then exits the target's apartment building. The centrepiece of the film is the assassin questioning his orders as part of a monologue to his restrained victim, and is underscored by "The Monologue", a track I was never happy with due to its simplistic and disjointed nature, and have omitted it from the album.
I also used themes and styles from this score for Captive, Chapter One, and revisited the Assassin's Theme for A Deadly Interview.
