I loved Deadwood and am still upset they never filmed the final season.

Perhaps an HHG2TG Babel fish would help.

every time i hear this my mind conjures up images of driving through dreary, lush, ocean-front countryside. usually, my co-pilot is tall, dark, handsome, and silent, and we're going somewhere epic with no plans of return.

sigh, i love this song.

Oh yes!  I miss Deadwood.....  My new LOVE is "Hell On Wheels", which features a theme song by Gustavo!!!!  And many other great songs played throughout, most I recognize from RP (thanks Bill).

The song helps me to remember the best international drama film I ever seen! It is more than a film, it is a new dimension. The films director Alejandro Gonzaliez Iñárritu is one of the greatest, and the soundtrack is deep as the drama is.

A great song from a very thought-provoking movie (Babel). Check it out if you haven't seen it.

I have no idea what "Deadwood" is (remember, I live in bumf*ck Nevada where we barely have internet access.)  Every time I hear the beginning of this song, I get chills and then lock all the doors and try to find my happy-place. It's so ominous-sounding! I love it, but it's almost painful.  I probably don't make any sense, so shutting up now.
 
I miss you so much, Ann...

This sounds practically like a (wonderful) cover version of Recuerdos de la Alhambra by the Spanish composer Francisco de Asís Tárrega y Eixea.

Did someone else physically type it for you or were you just plagiarizing a comment that 'critics' have been tossing around for centuries?  Oh, wait, were you referring to this song?

I think this song is about anticipation. So, its good that it doesn't do anything but keep you waiting.

This is also sountrack of Amores Perros (2000), while the film ending this song starts and takes me to the anathor world.

Gustavo is amazing.  I highly recommend breaking out of the Babel soundtrack and into his broader work.  Check him out on youtube and go from there.

I beg to differ.   I hated the movie.  To me, it was self-indulgent & contrived.   the attempt to weave the stories was forced.   The whole story in Japan was preposterous.    The Blanchett/Pitt sequence was completely depressing.   The attempts to be "arty" came across as just that.  Almost every character in the movie was dysfunctional and unlikeable.  I hated everything about the movie, except for this music.    Yuck, yuck, yuck!     I recommend this movie to folks that I want to ensure will not be my friends!      (am i clear enough?)

But everyone has different tastes.  Go figure! 
 
And I thought I was the only one... A part of the recommending part (though I like the black humor of this :) ) each of your words are my thoughts about this movie
