New Moon - The Score

The 'New Moon' Score comes out on November 24. A score is the instrumental music which literally underscores the action & dialogue in a film and helps to set the mood, tone and feel of a movie. I very much like scores, almost more than the song soundtracks as it gives more scope for the imagination, as Anne of Green Gables would say.

Alexandre Desplat who has scored some amazing movies such as the upcoming Fantastic Mr. Fox with George Clooney, Julie & Julia with Meryl Streep and Amy Adams, Coco Avant Chanel with Audrey Tautou, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button with Brad Pitt, The Golden Compass (also directed by Chris Weitz), The Painted Veil and The Queen lends his talent to the New Moon score. From what I have heard, it will be terrific, much more serious in tone than 'Twilight', of course this movie being much darker. Can't wait to see how the music will fit into the action.
