The International starring Clive Owen, Anamorph starring Willem Dafoe, Killer Elite starring Jason Stratham and Robert De Niro. Upcoming films include Orchestrating and writing music for the motion picture Cloud Atlas . Starring Tom Hanks and Halle Berry directed by Tom Tykwer and Andy Wachowski.
The New York Times described him as"...audacious...multitalented." Joseph Pehrson, writing in The Music Connoisseur, described Pritsker as dissolv[ing] the artificial boundaries between high brow, low brow, classical, popular musics and elevates the idea that if it's done well it is great music, regardless of the style or genre. Raul dGama Rose writes in All About Jazz: Barring the obvious exceptions, much of 21st century composition appears to be thinning in significance, but this might be about to change. Gene Pritsker is one of a very spare handful of composers effecting this change. - more press
