Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood has composed a hauntingly dramatic instrumental score for Oscarnominated writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson’s (Boogie Nights / Magnolia) ambitious new film, There Will Be Blood.
An adaptation of the Upton Sinclair novel Oil!, the movie features Daniel Day-Lewis in what The Hollywood Reporter has described as “a powerhouse performance... it’s a certain awards contender.”
Greenwood’s remarkable compositions, written primarily for strings, have already garnered considerable praise in advance reviews.
The soundtrack to There Will Be Blood will appeal to Radiohead fans & collectors, serious movie-music fans, who will appreciate this rare find: an intelligent, beautifuland deeply cinematic orchestrated score performed by the BBC Orchestra and London Sinfonietta.
There Will Be Blood can hold its own next to the classic work of such composers as Bernard Herrman, Elmer Bernstein and Ennio Morricone.
