Un’altra colonna sonora che ha sfiorato la statuetta questo Il curioso caso di Benjamin Button, toni da fiaba dark e musica d’ampio respiro per il compositore Alexandre Desplat che sforna 23 tracce veramente suggestive che in questo doppio album si affiancano ad un secondo CD formato compilation con le canzoni che hanno accompagnato la bizzarra evoluzione del curioso personaggio interpretato da Brad Pitt.

Nella seconda compilation grandi classici del passato che accompagnano il protagonista in spericolati duetti attraverso le varie epoche in una sorta di viaggio temporal-musicale all’insegna della nostalgia, tra gli interpreti il grande Louis Armstrong.
