A while back I
interviewed Nico Muhly about horror movies and his score for the creeptacular 2007 film
Joshua; additionally, Muhly's album
Mothertongue was one of my favorite albums of 2008. I just glanced at his blog and realized that
he composed the score for Stephen Daldry's new movie
The Reader, which stars Kate Winslet and Ralph Fiennes. I've been really curious about this movie... has anyone seen it yet who would care to report?
All of Muhly's albums --
Mothertongue,
Speaks Volumes,
Joshua, and
The Reader -- are available on iTunes. I like to imagine that in some parallel universe, we're good friends who occasionally take each other out for brunch at some forgotten joint in an unfashionable Manhattan neighborhood where there's no one else dining who's younger than 65.
