Details
Season 1 of Amazon’s Homecoming used existing cues from classic films such as Vertigo, Carrie & The Thing to highlight the noir elements of the show, which focussed on the mysterious Homecoming Transitional Support center. This secretive government facility may or may not be helping veterans transition back to the normality of civilian life.
With season two director Kyle Patrick Alverez expands the story into a larger world and in doing so asked Emile Mosseri (The Last Black Man In San Francisco) to score the show and it is undeniably one of the highlights of the show. The seasons’ central theme ‘Calico’ is a woozy, off-kilter piano motif that builds over time adding piercing strings and subtle distortion that is both familiar and disorientating (very much like the show itself) at the same time.
