- Wurman's score for Temple Grandin (2010) is astonishing and truly original - both cosmic and intimate, full of boundless energy, yet movingly simple. An amazing achievement. This music really finds and gives voice to the true spirit of the movie
- [on The Day After (1983)] "I know that Nicholas Meyer had tremendous problems with the censors, with everybody. [But] There's this crane shot - it's like a shot in Gone with the Wind (1939). I thought, 'This is obscene. You shouldn't be making [homages] in a subject like this.' This is why I decided I would go ahead and make 'Threads.' I was so angry at the blown opportunity."
