PS. I Love You

John Powell successfully partners that excited ‘love at first sight’ feeling with a lush, sweeping romantic score. Very supportive of imagery, at points it reaches climactic highs, and is driven by a folk-based instrumentation with guitars and ukelele.

Winner of the Oscar for “Best Picture”, and BAFTA for “Original Music”.
A film about Fraternity, courage, tolerance and love, Alexandre Desplat’s music floats over the film, never calling attention to itself, yet always supporting the drama.
