BADALAMENTI, ANGELO

Composer Angelo Badalamenti is best known as David Lynch's right-hand man when it comes to dreamily and driftily scoring the latter's atmospheric, vanguard films (as well as writing music for their mutual discovery, Julee Cruise). This score for John Maybury's 2008 film The Edge of Love isn't a terribly large stretch, despite the fact that some of the cues call for real period music and actual dramatic tension that doesn't rely on the bizarre. The film revolves around authentic and imagined episodes surrounding the real life love triangle involving poet Dylan Thomas (played by Thomas Rhys), his wife Caitlin MacNamara (Sienna Miller), and his first love Vera Phillips (Keira Knightley). The tension is added to by William Killick (Cillian Murphy), Phillips' WWII traumatized soldier-husband.
