Congratulations to Alexander Ebert, commonly known from folk group Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, on his Golden Globe win for Best Original Score tonight!
Survival themed and dialogue-absent film All Is Lost stars a shipwrecked, unnamed sailor (Robert Redford) abandoned somewhere in the Indian Ocean. Eleven beautifully crafted compositions tell the sailor's story of desolate isolation and a fearsome fight for survival. Alex uses every instrument to its peaks to create idiosyncratic pieces of such depth and passion that no other composer would be likely of with this picture.
All Is Lost is scheduled for DVD release in February.
