8 Must-See Olivia Wilde Movies, Including ‘Better Living Through Chemistry’

April 18, 2014 Film Music Daily Staff 3 Comments

A respectable small-town pharmacist (played by Sam Rockwell) delivers a prescription to a lonely trophy wife (played by Olivia Wilde). She takes him on a walk on the wild side, which includes extra-large martinis, uninhibited bedroom behavior and the illicit pleasures of the pharmacopeia he has access to in his store. Composers Andrew Feltenstein and John Nau (“Anchorman 2”; “Casa De Mi Padre”) load the soundtrack with whimsical, colorful, and jazzy tunes; not unlike what one might experience under the influence in this murderously dark comedy.

Better Living Through Chemistry also stars Michelle Monaghan (“Source Code“), Ray Liotta, Jane Fonda, as well as Ben Schwartz, Norbert Leo Butz and Ken Howard.

Happy Birthday Jennifer Garner!

April 17, 2014 Film Music Daily Staff 1 Comment

We at Lakeshore Records wish the lovely Jennifer Garner a happy birthday! In celebration, we take a look at Draft Day (now in theaters) and Butter (watch it on Netflix). Draft Day is scored by Academy Award-nominated Composer John Debney; Lakeshore Records is proud to have released the soundtracks to both films. If you’re not already crushing on this versatile actress, then be prepared to fall in love after seeing her in these movies.

We’ve loved her since we first saw her in TV’s Alias, and we’ve followed her glorious movie career with great interest ever since. She’s starred in some of our favorites including Juno, 13 Going on 30, and Academy-Award Nominee Dallas Buyers Club.

Scarlett Johansson Is A Recording Star

April 17, 2014 Film Music Daily Staff 2 Comments

Scarlett Johansson is in the spotlight with her new movie, Captain America: Winter Soldier, but we really want to shine the light on her recording career. You may have heard her vocals in the Days of Grace soundtrack released by Lakeshore Records. Featured in the George Gershwin standard, “Summertime,” remixed by Robert Del Naja (of Massive Attack) and Tim Goldsworthy, Johansson’s vocals are ethereal and not to be missed. But, if by chance you haven’t heard it, we’ve got you covered.

The album also features a score by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis (“The Road”; “The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford”), Academy Award-winner Atticus Ross (“The Social Network”; “The Book of Eli”) with Leopold Ross & Claudia Sarne, and Shigeru Umebayashi (The Grandmaster).

More to love: In the past two years, Johansson’s vocals have been associated with Oscar-nominated films such as Her in which she sings “Moon Song” (check out this acoustic version), and the Oscar-nominated climate documentary, Chasing Ice, in which she contributed her vocal talents to “Before My Time.” We have a very good hunch that we will be hearing a lot more from her.

In the spotlight: Watch the Vanity Fair May 2014 cover shoot video, featuring Scarlett Johansson:
