It's a really wonderful movie and the soundtrack is mostly classical and almost magical. You should watch it. ^-^ My favorite Yann Tierson soundtrack is from the french film Amelie.

But I completely agree with you in terms of the quality--it happens to be a favorite movie of mine, but really I think above all the soundtrack helped largely to carry the film, and alerted me to the existence of a quiet, unique and previously unheard sound in 'Badly Drawn Boy.' I bought this cd a few years ago and to this day I never get tired of it, especially "Silent Sigh," "Something to Talk About," and "A Minor Incident" (which supposedly is the suicide letter that the boy's mom wrote but somehow they turn it into such a happy tune!). Oh, and I have the book too, I'd suggest reading it, it's hilarious and much better than the film. Anyways, kudos : ) Thanks for drawing attention to this soundtrack (6 years later haha).

I love Jon Brion. I Heart Huckabees is fantastic too. Both are also among my favorite movies. Ah, yes, Eternal Sunshine has a great soundtrack. I love Jon Brion. I Heart Huckabees is fantastic too.

It makes that movie not seem 60 years old. My favorite OST would have to be the wonderful sounds of the often overlooked zither done for The Third Man. It makes that movie not seem 60 years old.

As for About A Boy, it's an okay film. I enjoyed watching it, but it's far from being a favorite of mine. I still think the music was by far the best part of the movie. Thanks for the message.
