In honour of it's five academy awards last night, my record for today is from the soundtrack for The Artist. I can't even explain how much I loved this film - it has me written all over it. It's funny and sad and perfect in all ways (plus as I've been saying a million times - Uggie is possibly the cutest thing ever to be seen on the big screen. EVER). The soundtrack is absolutely authentic and even has a bit of Duke Ellington thrown in there to add a little more awesomeness. It was mostly written by Ludovic Bource, along with samples and extracts from other famous scores (such as Hitchcock's Vertigo written by the impeccable Bernard Herrmann). Bource had only written for small French films before this soundtrack which so far has gotten him 7 major awards, including an Oscar, a BAFTA and a Golden Globe. I will never be able to sing enough praises for this movie so have a listen to this and if you haven't seen it yet, (and are most likely judging it by the fact is a silent movie and you're like sooo not into that) SHAME ON YOU.
Record of the Day: George and Peppy (Finale of the film) - The Artist Soundtrack (Ludovic Bource)
