    Just saw the thriller, "You Were Never Really Here", starring Joaquin Phoenix and directed by Lynne Ramsay.
    Joaquin Phoenix gives an amazing preformance as a PTSD suffering hit man. The score, done by Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead will, I think, get an oscar. I've never heard beats, rhythms and sound used the way he does. Some parts are truly unnerving and others build tension and take you along as they blend into the street sounds. I watched it twice and the second time took a couple hours as I replayed sections for the music and sound.
    If you get a chance see it...it is an amazing movie.

    Thanks for the heads up. I will add this one to my repertoire. :wink:
     
  5. Same here, just today downloaded it not knowing much about, and now if for no other reason than Jonny Greenwood did the score I am going to check it out sooner than later.

    I'm not sure if the score deserves an Oscar, it's too original & doesn't have nearly enough (any) cheesy strings =)

    I enjoyed it, although it owes a lot to Hotline Miami, not least the soundtrack. It is very clever, too, even that (music) "jump cut" at the start!
