Wow! One of the three new backers since I checked this morning (it was 444 then) must have pledged a good amount because the Kickstarter now stands at $49,637 (so only $363 remaining, to fund On Dangerous Ground)! That's with over three days still to go! I was starting to think this would fund only two days from the end of the campaign, just like happened with Tiomkin's Dial M for Murder. But now I think it could reach $50,000 within the next few hours! In its final two days after successfully funding to the $45,000 goal, Dial M for Murder surprisingly added on an additional $4,313 even though nothing was dependent upon that extra funding: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/129145902/dial-m-for-murder-film-score-recording I want to believe that with a whole additional day, and an actual substantive stretch goal to reach towards, this Herrmann campaign can come up with a little more than double that additional amount...

50.000 reached... now that remaining 10,000... Congratulations! Chances are good the stretch goal might also be met by the end of the campaign if bigger money enters the scene.

I just backed it right after it reached its initial goal, so now we're on the way to THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH... hopefully!

420 backers now with 6 days to go and just over $5,000 left to raise for On Dangerous Ground. So going by this note I made, it took only 3 days to raise the remaining ~$5000 needed for On Dangerous Ground. Let’s hope the velocity is about twice that for the remaining 3 days, so that The Man Who Knew Too Much can happen too! Yavar

ONCE AGAIN.....it's not surprising at all. People tell Kickstarter to send a reminder email, which they do 48 hours before the campaign ends. So pretty much every KS will see a good chunk of contribution the last couple days. I wasn’t surprised there were a bunch of new backers in the final two days. I *was* surprised that they contributed $4,313 more to a campaign that had already reached its funding goal. The base tier to get a CD was only $25. There were not 172 new backers in the last couple days. So there were multiple people giving a LOT of money when they didn’t have to, for the Kickstarter to succeed. That surprised me. The more recent Goldsmith campaign exceeded its goal by $5,893, but it met its goal after only two weeks, with over half the campaign still to go. And that almost $6,000 came from a lot more people, so it fits more what I’d expect. We aren’t quite at the 2 day mark yet for this Herrmann campaign but as the only one of the three with an as-yet-unreached stretch goal, I am still optimistic that it will beat both of those overages because there’s a really concrete incentive for it to do so.

Perhaps that stretch goal should be listed AT THE TOP of the page rather than buried at its very end... Yes!
