P should do a film score

Although P wrote music for ballet back in the 90s, I'm surprised he hasn't considered scoring music for films to expand his creative horizons and to challenge himself (excluding Batman or PR incidental music)like Danny Elfman or John Williams. I think it would be a good way to gain a new audience and consolidate his reputation as a true artist and testify to his versatility. It would also give him new ideas/themes to put his music to and cater to his natural interest in film.

Wouldn't it be cool to see his music creating the atmosphere for all genres of film?

I think Prince is more a songwriter than a composer. Exhibit A - Kamasutra. barf
We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

the only way he would do it, if it he was in the movie etc etc
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81
