Clint Mansell's scores are often great pieces of work; his music complements films quite well, and many are excellent standalone artifacts. The only film to bear a Mansell score so far in 2013 is Stoker, which premiered at Sundance in January. But Mansell has also done music for Filth, the Irvine Welsh novel adaptation that…

Oldboy director Park Chan-Wook makes his English-language debut with the thriller Stoker, featuring Nicole Kidman, Matthew Goode, and Mia Wasikowska. The Hitchcockian film seems to illustrated a creepy triangle of infatuation and manipulation that develops in the Stoker family when a mother (Kidman) and daughter (Wasikowska) are caught in the thrall of Uncle Charlie (Goode),…

You might consider it a given that Clint Mansell would score Noah for Darren Aronofsky, as the two have a long-established working partnership that is beginning to resemble the creative marriage between Joel and Ethan Coen and Carter Burwell. In fact, "marriage" is exactly the word Aronofsky uses to describe his work with both Mansell…

It's not a proper trailer -- in fact, this is one of those irritating footage presentations on Entertainment Tonight where the talking heads yammer over the top of scenes from a film. But it is the first footage from Stoker, which marks the English-language directorial debut from acclaimed South Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook, responsible for…

When you've got the director of Oldboy making an intimate vampire film, you know the score will be as important as the lead actors. In the case of Park Chan-wook's English-language debut, Stoker, that certainly seems to be the case. He's recruited Clint Mansell to score the film, which stars Oscar-winner Nicole Kidman and Alice in Wonderland herself, Mia Waskiowska, in the…

Many many years ago, when he was part of the band Pop Will Eat Itself, Clint Mansell was no stranger to the stage. But in the years since he has become a man who primarily scores films, his live appearances are few and far between. That changes in 2012 as Mansell, with the Sonus Quartet,…

Hip hop has appropriated a lot of stuff from movies over the years: score samples, sound effects, dialogue. It's all fodder. (RZA and The Wu Tang Clan are the most obvious examples, thanks to RZA's heavy reliance on martial arts films.) Now Richard Rich and Max Tannone have created Selene, an EP that is heavily…

Clint Mansell is among the best film composers in the business, having recently added yet another masterful score to his name with the cheekily bombastic, disorienting Black Swan. That was his latest in a long line of contributions to the films of Darren Aronofsky, having previously worked on The Wrestler, The Fountain, Requiem for a…

The score of a film is its beating heart. Music subtly, or sometimes not so subtly, juxtaposed with visuals can do almost anything from create tension, elicit themes, set tone, link scenes or raise goosebumps. Without music, most films are a cold, dead fish. That's why the Oscar for Best Original Score is such a…

Clint Mansell is one of my favorite film composers working today, and has been since hearing his first work on Darren Aronofsky's Pi. His incredible score for Requiem for a Dream has been re-purposed in countless trailers and commercials over the years. He has continued to work on Aronofsky's projects over the years and his…

This is my favorite news so far today: Clint Mansell will provide the score for Source Code, the second film from director Duncan Jones.
