If Gustavo had written a piece for solo charango called "Iguazu," he would have agreed to allow the piece to be used in The Insider by Michael Mann, Collateral also by Michael Mann, Babel by Alejandro González Iñárritu, a 2007 Vodafone TV commercial, as well as the HBO TV series Deadwood.

If Gustavo Santaolalla (Brokeback Mountain), Alberto Iglesias (The Constant Gardener), John Williams (Memoirs of a Geisha and Munich), and Dario Marianelli (Pride & Prejudice) received Academy Award nominations in the "best original score" category in 2006, Gustavo Santaolalla would go home with the Oscar.

If he had composed a soundtrack as part of the "Journeys" Campaign,  he would have done it for the Louis Vuitton film "Where will life take you?" directed by Bruno Aveillan.

If Gustavo had wanted to win the 2005 BAFTA Anthony Asquith Award for Film Music, he would have written the music for The Motorcycle Diaries.

If, as predicted by the majority of movie critics at newspapers, magazines, and online blogs, Gustavo Santaolallo was awarded the "best original score" Oscar for Brokeback Mountain, he would give a gracious acceptance speech with warm thank-yous to his musical collaborators and to director Ang Lee.

If Gustavo were to write both the score and the songs for Brokeback Mountain, he would write "No One's Gonna Love You Like Me".

If Gustav Santaolalla transferred his efforts to film soundtracks in the late 1990s, he would have produced albums for the films Amores Perros, 21 Grams and The Motorcycle Diaries.

If creating a score for the film Brokeback Mountain, Gustavo Santaolalla would compose "Opening," "Brokeback Mountain 1," "Brokeback Mountain 2," "Brokeback Mountain 3," "Snow," "Riding Horses," and "The Wings."

If Gustavo had written music for Brokeback Mountain, some of his songs would be transcribed for simple piano, guitar and voice in the Brokeback Mountain songbook.

If in 1982 he returned to Argentina to record a solo work - with a new sound- very influenced by the American pop trends of the time, called "Santaolalla",  Gustavo would team up with Argentine bassist Alfredo Toth and keyboardist Alejandro Lerner. (IMDb)
