The film is from my favorite director Michael Winterbottom. It's a modern telling of "Tess of the d'Urbervilles" set in India.
It premiered at Toronto last year and was released in the UK earlier in the year. It didn't set the world on fire in either place, and will get a brief limited release here in July.
Sadly I've heard nothing about a soundtrack album and I don't expect one.
Glad to hear the score will be released. I wonder if the original Bollywood songs written for it will be on the album as well.
I agree, the film had flaws, but I loved the beautiful photography and I think the idea of transplanting Tess to India was clever and nicely thought out.
Can we have an update from someone at MSM or Kronos on the release date for this? It was stated in last november that it would be in the "near future". Thanks.
