Stephen Warbeck has recently composed the music for the upcoming French romantic comedy Arctic Heart (Le secret des banquises). The film is written and directed by Marie Madinier and stars Guillaume Canet, Charlotte Le Bon, Anne Le Ny, Patrick D’Assumçao and Damien Chapelle. The movie follows a timid young grad student who is madly in love with her scientist boss and offers her body to his research. Kristina Larsen (Farewell, My Queen, Diary of a Chambermaid) is producing the project. Arctic Heart is expected to be released later this year.
Warbeck who is best known for his Academy Award-winning score for Shakespeare in Love recently also scored the French drama My King (Mon roi). The movie starring Emmanuelle Bercot & Vincent Cassel was picked up by Film Movement for a U.S. theatrical release later this year. The composer received a Cesar Award nomination for his work on the film last month.
