Best Scores and Soundtracks
of the Year (some
of them talked about in depth here) Michael Andrews» «Jeff Who Lives At Home» (he's criminally underrated), Nick Urata's score for «Ruby Sparks» (
beautiful and heartrending, maybe my fave
of the year), «Beasts
of the Southern Wild» (anthemic, celebratory, overwhelmingly
burst - into - tear inducing), Hans Zimmer's «The Dark Knight Rises» (typically thrilling and towering), Howard Shore and Metric — «Cosmopolis» (sinisterly futuristic; we overlooked by accident), the soundtrack to «The Comedy» (poignantly wistful soul), the soundtrack to «Take This Waltz,» «Rust & Bone,» «Nobody Walks» and «Keep The
Lights On» (an excellent soundtrack
of forlorn Arthur Russell songs that we regrettably failed to mention at length in our music piece).
