We have a treat for you on our latest episode of Soundtracking, not just in the shape of our guest but also the quite magnificent score that accompanies his new film.
\\n\\n\\nFor director Dome Karukoski wisely enlisted the services of the incomparable Thomas Newman for Tolkein, a biopic on the life of The Hobbit and Lord Of The Rings author. Starring Nicholas Hoult, Lily Collins, Colm Meaney, and Derek Jacobi, Tolkein charts the writer's formative years, as his creativity, friendships and love affair with Edith Bratt are put to the test by the outbreak of World War I.
\\n\\n\\nAs ever, you'll hear plenty of Thomas's music throughout the conversation, as well as examples of Hildur Gu\\xf0nad\\xf3ttir & Lasse Enersen's work on one of Dome's previous movies, Tom Of Finland.
