In a distinct break from their muscular triumph Gladiator, Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott teamed up again to bring Peter Mayle's sunny Provençal romance to the screen, a change of milieu that's spawned an equally warm, often sentimentally tinged soundtrack and score. Using a trio of pop songs by the great Harry Nilsson (including the joyous demo of Nilsson Schmilsson's "Gotta Get Up") as an axis that's as effusive as it is unlikely, this is a collection that romps through Franco-pop nuggets variously contemporary (Makali's elegant "Il Faut du Temps..."), vintage (Charles Trenet's "Je Chante," Jean Sablon's "J'Attendrai," Tino Rossi's "Le Chant du Guardian"), and downright loopy (Richard Anthony's French redux of "Yellow Polka-Dot Bikini"), making room for Patti Page, Josephine Baker, and Delaney & Bonnie along its merry way. Also included are three cues from newcomer Marc Streitenfeld's underscore, a nimble exercise in instrumental post-modernism whose electronica/folk/neoclassical mélange is as eclectic as the song choices, yet characterized by subtlety and grace. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews

Good...but next time if you use a song put it on the soundtrack
Good music was set to this movie but the soundtrack is lacking a large number of songs you will have enjoyed in the movie. Here is a running list of the songs not on the soundtrack but in the movie.

40ft. -Franz Ferdinand
Hey Joe-Johnny Hallyday
Chances-Athlete
Room With a View-Noel Coward
Walk Right Back-Everly Brothers
Quand on s'promene au bord de l'eau-Jean Gabin
Les ex-Camille
Vous qui passez sans me voir-Jean Sablon
Lounge Lizard-Joe Lervold
Paris-Stephen Lang
Sur Les Chemins-Makali
Le linge seche au vent-Makali
Boum-Adrien Chevalier/Charles Trenet
La puissance-Jonathan Rotem
La fleur que tu...-Georges Bizet
Moi..Lolita-Alizee

Loved the Movie but don't know about soundtrack
Would have liked the soundtrack more if more songs from movie were on it.

A Good Year Soundtrack missing lots of favorites
Ordered the soundtrack and immediately sent it back because many of the really good songs from the movie were omitted. I'll just have to watch the DVD a lot to enjoy that music, especially when Russell Crowe and Marilyn Cotillard are sitting at the outside cafe watching the movie and listening to the song being sung. I believe the song is called Boum...not on the soundtrack. I would rather have had that than Patti Paige.
