Lakeshore Records is very pleased to release Trumbo (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) — out now! Download here: [iTunes]

With dialogue almost as snappy and effervescent as the jazzy score, Trumbo and crew subvert and foil the enemy. The mix of drama and humor works well here and comedic backgrounds of many of Trumbo’s stars becomes an incredible asset, adding almost perfect timing to many a line-reading. – Consequence of Sound

Trumbo (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) features score by Theodore Shapiro, acclaimed composer of films such as St. Vincent, Secret Life Of Walter Mitty and the recent Lakeshore Records release, Infinitely Polar Bear.  Theodore’s diverse contributions to the film music world is punctuated by Trumbo, says of Soundtrack Geek: “I’ve never heard Shapiro quite like this… this for me though is his best one yet.”

Bleecker Street presents TRUMBO, in select theaters now and everywhere on Thanksgiving (find a theater).

Bryan Cranston finally translates his critical acclaim for “Breaking Bad” into an Oscar-caliber performance in darkly comic Trumbo, playing an eloquent, witty screenwriter who bucked the Hollywood blacklist and triumphed. – New York Post

Bryan Cranston creates a potent sense of Trumbo as a reasonable man, full of charm, eloquence and principle and he is surrounded by a string of performances to savour. – Allan Hunter, Screen International

Trumbo is timely in its portrayal of a moment when political speech is dangerously charged, yet unabashedly old-fashioned in the sincerity of its storytelling. – Los Angeles Times
