Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer music director
Snell joined Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's music department in 1937, turning out music for a range of films from low-cost "B" movies to expensive features.Шаблон:Sfn He would spend his entire film career with MGM.Шаблон:Sfn He was conductor, composer, and music director for MGM for twenty-one years.'Шаблон:Sfn The work could be high pressure. In November 1938 Franz Waxman had just five days to put together the fifty-minute score for A Christmas Carol so it could be released in time for the holiday season. Snell helped out, writing the opening and closing credit cues and half a dozen other cues based on themes provided by Waxman.Шаблон:Sfn
Snell wrote music for many full-length films, shorts and B-movie series such as Dr. Kildare, Maisie and The Thin Man.
His songs include Under The Stars, Downstream Drifter, Come Back Little Girl Of Mine and Once Over Lightly.Шаблон:Sfn
Snell's scores often showed first-rate craftmanship, but his work has generally been ignored, perhaps because in most cases he chose to simply underscore the dialog as opposed to contributing complementary musical ideas.Шаблон:Sfn However, for the 1947 Lady in the Lake, based on the Raymond Chandler novel and set around Christmas time, Snell chose to use a choir singing a cappella without musical accompaniment, providing an austere and effective "black and white" score to accompany the stark black and white cinematography.Шаблон:Sfn The moody music echoed Christmas carols.Шаблон:Sfn
David L. Snell died at home in Glendale, California on March 27, 1967.Шаблон:Sfn
