Badly Drawn Boy's score for About a Boy is what propels the film from being mediocre to being very good.

Finally some recognition!

Yeah, of all the ones I thought PDL wouldn't sweep, this was the main one. I don't think there's any good argument for About a Boy loosing out. But, again, la de da.

This is one of the handful of PDL nominations I voted for.  Sure, Badly Drawn Boy's music does wonders for "About a Boy", but Jon Brion's score is visionary.  It's brilliant, it's unlike anything we've ever heard in a movie, and it elevates everything around it.

Touche.  Of course, I feel the same way about the score for "CQ", but I think I was the only one who nominated it in this category.

Shit, I love the CQ sdtrck. I forgot to nominate that one. PDL does it for me though. I LOVE this score.

i like thomas newman's for RTP the best, but PDL ruled, so who cares.
