American Beauty Dead Already ( Piano)
Music by Thomas Newman Arranged by Piano Palt American Beauty (1999) was Sam Mendes sensational directorial debut. Kevin Spacey stars as the advertising executive with a midlife crisis, he becomes infatuated with his teenage daughter s best friend. A stereotypical situation, but American Beauty is no cliche film, it s an almost mythological journey set in an everyday suburbia. Mendes said the script seemed to be about something different each time he read it: a mystery story, a kaleidoscopic journey, a series of love stories; it was about imprisonment, loneliness and beauty. It was funny; it was angry, sad. Thomas Newman s wonderful score interweaves with the story, the music is often lonely and alienated, but also transcendent. Sheet music available at
