Ulee's Gold Soundtrack music CDs Product Description
Ulee's Gold Soundtrack CD music The films of the underrated American independent director Victor Nuñez are renowned among cinephiles for their nuanced, thoughtful depiction of life in the rural communities of Florida's Gulf Coast region, and in longtime collaborator Charles Engstrom he's found the perfect musical accomplice -- Engstrom's intimate, richly atmospheric themes perfectly convey the quiet intelligence and emotional depth that underline Nuñez's vision. Ulee's Gold Soundtrack music CDs Ulee's Gold remains Engstrom's richest, most moving effort, employing piano, bass, flute, and cello to create a simple yet striking evocation of beekeeper Ulysses "Ulee" Gold's (Peter Fonda) pastoral world and the dangers that creep in from its margins -- its melodies seem to deflect attention, yet give them proper time and they sink in completely. ~ Jason Ankeny

Ulee's Gold Soundtrack songs. Mercurial Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood's second foray into film scoring (his haunting work on Paul Thomas Anderson's 2007 masterpiece There will Be Blood should have landed him an Oscar nomination) finds the budding composer in a much more plaintive state of mind. Based on the book by Japanese author Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood follows a love-lorn pair of college freshmen as they navigate the emotional wasteland of 1960's Tokyo. Peppered by three tracks from Krautrock legends Can, Greenwood's score is largely string-based, with full orchestral arrangements that eventually give way to a simple string quartet. Dreamy, evocative, and distant, Norwegian Wood's tone resides far from the quivering, feedback-laden rage that fueled There Will Be Blood, but the minimalist attitude remains. Part Arvo Pärt and Part Brian Eno, Greenwood continues to impress. ~ James Christopher Monger
