This is one of my most anticipated scores of the year, it should fit him like a glove. And judging from that clip it seems he nailed it.

Ok while Desplat usually leave me somewhat cold, he can really nail it now and again.....this one looks like he might have nailed if the rest of the score is like this.
Yeah...I think there is literally one score by Desplat I actually enjoy (Imitation Game)...so I was kinda disappointed he was scoring this (especially considering Newman's Little Women is one of my favorite scores ever).
Still...I'm reserving judgement...he could surprise me with something wonderful and heartfelt...this sounds like there is a chance.

Sounds good! I'm sure a theme will jump out at me once I see the movie, but everything else is grand.

Double vinyl up at amazon.com. Can't see the CD release yet.
There's a German CD which is up at the various European Amazons, it's conceivable there might not be a US CD.

Tinkle tinkle tinkle accompanied by sawing strings. Very nice. Unremarkable, but nice.
I also listened to the other track they've released. If I had no idea what it was from, I might've guessed a Teletubbies movie, which would definitely be scored by Desplat if Zimmer wasn't available.
All very pleasant. Pleasant and tinkly.

Unremarkable, but nice.
J'Accuse (aka An Officer and a Spy) is the superior Desplat this year. No precious tinkle-tinkle.
But it won't get much attention, and for one of two reasons:
1. it accompanies a French language film.
2. the film is directed by Roman Polanski.
Also:
3. the film is not being released in the US at all, it seems, just like Polanski's last film
I got the CD last week from Amazon France. I'm torn between trying to either waiting until I can somehow see the film or just listening to it.

This is Desplat’s strongest score since The Light Between Oceans. Absolutely sparkles with life and is sublimely beautiful.

Found it on iTunes and You Tube. That opening track is impressive. A little kinship with Bernard Herrmann there.
Another 2019 Desplat score with some nice moments: The Adults in the Room.
