One of the last movies my wife and I watched before she died last year was the Phantom Thread. We never said a word during the whole film. At the end we looked at each other and said, "Wow." We had watched the same film with the same eyes and ears we shared for so many years. This theme cemented our love of this film and each other. Kathy I miss you every day. I love you.

Jonny Greenwood was robbed of that best soundtrack Oscar. Daylight robbery

This song makes me want to eat a big breakfast.

Phantom Thread is a film about the limits of perfection. The pursuit of beauty is solitary and futile; love brings bitterness and disappointment. Jonny Greenwood’s score is a self-conscious composition to match... There are countless moments of aesthetic bliss that threaten to overwhelm, but never do: It is ambiguous how good any of this should really feel. You cannot live a charmed life forever, the music suggests.
_
The main theme, “House of Woodcock, ” is the best example of fleeting satisfaction, as its florid motif vanishes just as soon as it peaks... The Phantom Thread score captures the hope that’s always out of reach, the desire for something more, and the acknowledgment that as you settle back down to reality, you realize that what’s around you is not to be taken for granted.

This film has the most chic soundtrack ever.

Jonny Greenwood proves himself as one of the greatest composers of our era (Once more).

_"Reynolds has made my dreams come true. And I have given him what he desires most in return."_
_"And what's that?"_
_"Every piece of me."_
_"He was a very demanding man, isn't he? Must be quite a challenge to be with him."_
_"Yes. Maybe he is the most demanding man."_

This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music i’ve ever heard in my life..

[imakamera]

This piece of music made the film for me

[noelyanes]

It’s like he took love and composed it in a musical form

[nataliet]

Listening to this feels like a warm, cozy blanket wrapped around me. I remember sitting in a packed theater watching the movie's opening scene with this score playing, and everyone was silent and still and simply awe-struck.

A great “spin” on the “light” music of the 30s and 40s mixed with the deeper sensuality of French Impressionism.

[Eamndo]

This is a most beautiful piece of music, almost feels extinct from this era.

[ballerina]

Just saw the film. On repeat for hours afterwards...

[remsan]

00:24 Oh, that luscious cascading waterfall of gracious notes. That was the part that hooked me.

Jonny has a very long and fruitful career ahead in film if he wishes it.

I just got married yesterday, and this is the music we played when my wife walked down the aisle.

[americker]

This track feels like a miracle. It's so perfect and delicate and beautiful. Jonny was robbed of the Oscar.

[Bestevus]

This is the work of a fully developed musician at the height of his talent.
The Bernard Herrmann and Debussy comparisons are fair, although the Penderecki influence will always be there, somehow.
I envy the skill of such well-shaped mastery. Good for him.

That music sounds like something unreal, part of the dream that will probably never happen and it only exists in our heads. There is sadness in it, and speechless beauty which reminds me of this part of the summer, in which we already can sense the fall coming. And it is also something very sensual in it, sexual too. Like seeing your beloved one's face in the light of the moon.
