Beautiful Soundtrack

"I have not watched the movie but I may do so one day. After sampling a few of the songs I purchased this soundtrack because of my previous experience with the composer, Marcelo Zarvos (his last name is incorrectly spelled out in the Amazon.com web site). He's the same man behind the soundtracks for movies like The Good Shepherd and The Door In The Floor, both of which are part of my favorite soundtrack collection.
The piano works are melodic and soft, and the orchestrations move the music along to create mood and to keep you guessing what it is that's actually happening in the movie. Some of the pieces in this soundtrack also have the dark, somber mood brought upon by the use of the cello.
Really recommended for those people who enjoy great orchestral works."
Searing, haunting score ...

"... just like the film. The music perfectly captured its bittersweet mood, and like the story, it echoes in your mind long after you've left the theater."
Haunting, Beautiful Like the Movie...

"I actually listened to this soundtrack before I ever watched the movie. I fell in love with this soundtrack. It is dark, mysterious, and yet full of hope like the movie. It captures pivotal scenes and works so well with the bittersweet premise of the movie. it is haunting, and absolutely stunning work by Marcelo Zavros."
