So, it's been almost two years since I started this humble little movie blog and it occurred to me, after a couple of glasses of wine, that I've never written anything deeply personal. That's absurd because film is such a personal medium. Everything I watch takes me to a specific place, along with the music that accompanies. It's also only fitting that I should finally write about the genius that is Clint Mansell because I recently witnessed his music played live at Film Music Prague - it was indeed a night to remember. So here it goes. Cue: a deep breath and another glass of red.

You won't find Baby Driver on this list, but give it a spin all the same. For those of you too impatient to read and who would rather get straight to the point, scroll down to check out my carefully selected 'Best of' Spotify playlist. Happy listening!
