<snip> Boyle reteams with A.R. Rahman, who won two Academy Awards for their last collaboration (Slumdog Millionaire). Rahman's score for 127 Hours is more involved in the moments before and after Ralston became stuck in the canyon. I almost wish there were more of it, but it seems Boyle chose to play the dramatic moments more naturalistic (which is understandable). </snip>
Film Rating: 9.5 out of 10 http://www.slashfilm.com/2010/09/04/telluride-review-danny-boyles-127-hours/ <snip> Technically, Boyle is assisted by exemplary cinematography credited to both Enrique Chediak and Anthony Dod Mantle. A.R. Rahman, who famously collaborated with Boyle on "Slumdog," is back for a second go around with new songs and compositions that eloquently fit the mood (most appear to feature Dido in the vocals). Rahaman is also pitch perfect in his score for the film's most dramatic moment, helping Boyle create the unexpectedly uplifting conclusion. All three will be key players in their categories as awards season progresses. </snip> http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/awards-campaign-2009/posts/telluride-danny-boyles-127-hours-is-a-visceral-and-uplifting-experience Tears in Telluride for 127 Hours http://www.awardsdaily.com/2010/09/tears-in-telluride-for-127-hours/ Telluride 2010: Danny Boyle's '127 Hours' cuts an impressive swath http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/movies/2010/09/telluride-2010-danny-boyles-127-hours-storms-into-town.html -Vinod
