The Best of Alexandre Desplat

What is perhaps my most anticipated soundtrack of this year, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1, seems almost destined for an Oscar nomination for Alexandre Desplat. In the past, Desplat has been able to do wonders with so little. His scores for such small films like The Queen and Fantastic Mr. Fox have earned him enough acclaim to make him a rising presence, with another score for The King's Speech on the way.. He's one of the most spectacular composers working in the business today, and a personal favorite of mine. Even the films he's worked on that have critically flopped have had stellar scores attached to them. It seems proper to go over his best work to date. His works speaks for itself, so enjoy and comment on your thoughts.
