It's soundtrack plays non-stop in my cars stereo wherever I go, too.

Hi Rob,
Wow, 7 times. I agree with you--and I've only seen it three times! This, and Shelter are the only two films I've wanted to see more than once since Brokeback.
The soundtrack is indeed mesmerizing.
I may have to see it again.
Cheers,
Paul

Nice to hear from you Rob! Would love to hear more about your thoughts on A Single Man!
Now, Bright Star, about the short adulthood of John Keats and his love Fanny Brawne, is finally out on DVD. I can't wait to see it, but I must...my evenings are all booked until the weekend!!

Arianne Phillips was nominated for costume design on this movie and Nicholas Hoult was named a rising star, but somehow I expected the movie to receive more awards from BAFTA. Oh well, on to the Oscars!

I feel pretty much the same way, loved it!

Of course Colin Firth won Best Actor, which made me smile a big one. (A tear or two, too!)
I also thought that the musical score, which really played a large part in the film, deserved to be recognized!
