WaterTower Music will release the official soundtrack album for Alexander Payne’s social satire Downsizing. The album features the film’s original music composed by Rolfe Kent (Wedding Crashers, Up in the Air, Legally Blonde) who previously scored Payne’s Sideways (which earned him a Golden Globe nomination), Election, About Schmidt and Citizen Ruth. Also included is the original song A Little Change in the Weather written by Kent, with lyrics by the composer, Edward Randell & Joanna Goldsmith-Eteson and performed by The Swingles. The soundtrack will be released digitally on December 22 (click here to order) and physically on January 12, 2018. Visit Amazon to pre-order the CD. Downsizing is co-written and directed by Payne and stars Matt Damon, Christoph Waltz, Hong Chau and Kristen Wiig. The movie follows a man who joins the throngs of people undergoing a new process that reduces people to a tiny fraction of their size before moving to one of the many communities of small people that are sprouting up around the world.

    What is the name of the opera song that plays in the movie “Downsizing” when Matt Damon gets dropped of in front of his Mini-mansion, and the song continues whilst he inspects his home and continues till he steps in the bathroom and apparently yells a swear word when scorched by the hot water.

      Its is on the track on the soundtrack album on the track called “Five inches Tall and Alone, its about half way through the track. Not sure who the opera singer is, I think it may be Cecilia Bartoli.
