The Melania Trump documentary includes a portion of Jonny Greenwood's Oscar-nominated score from Paul Thomas Anderson's film Phantom Thread. Jonny Greenwood owns the copyright to the score. Universal Pictures used a portion of that score in the documentary without consulting Greenwood. Greenwood states that Universal's failure to consult him on this third-party use constitutes a breach of his composer agreement. Greenwood and Paul Thomas Anderson have jointly asked for the music to be removed from the documentary. The request followed a statement released Monday asserting copyright ownership and the alleged contractual breach.
