It’s a beautiful score, and imaginative. Fascinating film. Already purchased the soundtrack. I highly recommend the Soundtrack to Sparrow, a film about pickpockets in, I believe, South Korea. (Been a while) Wonderful film, and soundtrack has the feel of Michel Legrand’s Thomas Crown Affair score. Brilliant hip music! Go on youtube to hear cuts. Also, the soundtrack to Neil Jordan’s The Good Thief.
