[OT] working with film directors.

I have what seems to me an odd question to have to ask.  I'm working  
on a film score and the director keeps chopping my music up.  He says  
he likes the music. ...then he cuts bits and pieces out of it making  
it sound like a mess...... and when the music runs short....because  
he's cut bits and pieces out of the score.....then I"m supposed to  
rewrite....leaving the pieces chopped out....  We're doing this on  
almost every scene.  It's like he's using it like library music.  I  
don't get it....why hire a composer if you're going to chop the music  
up.

I've never run into this before.....Is this common practice.  I feel  
like I"m in the twilight zone.  Some how I can't imagine Ridley Scott  
chopping up a Zimmer score.....?
