Terence Blanchard @ Purdue talking about inspiration writing the score for Spike Lee's Malcom X. Blanchard grew up learning about Dr. King, so his first exposure to Malcolm X was hearing a recording at age 15. His initial reactions from that memory are captured in the opening sequence of his score.
