    • The Tree of Life (2011) The Tree of Life is a master class in making a fluid art-house film on a big budget (if that is even a thing). A deep-rooted story of where we come from and where we are going when we are not part of this world anymore.

    • The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014) Desplat’s work with director Wes Anderson is always a blast and here he delivers a quirky, unpredictable - and Oscar-winning - score full of delights; catchy tunes, comedic tics and breezy colours - zithers and balalaikas galore - that charm the ear and match Anderson’s unique and hilarious vision.
    • Zero Dark Thirty (2012) No room for Desplat’s natural charm in this tough, intense picture on the hunt for Osama Bin Laden. The music sits low in the film’s mix, with muted orchestral colours, biting and bubbling beneath the surface of the drama.
