After seeing the movie, I immediately got the soundtrack. Each song is unique and transports to a place of happiness and joy. The movie was fabulous, too.

4.0 out of 5 stars I Like This I Really Do! May 2, 2012
Format:Audio CD
With movie soundtracks you either like them or they bore you, especially if you have not seen the movie yet. This film attracted me due to the stars Maggie Smith and Jundi Dench and the story about retirees moving to India. I listened to this about 3 times yesterday and found that it can stand on it's own. The Newman legacy continues with this new soundtrack.

5.0 out of 5 stars The music of forgiveness June 7, 2012
Format:MP3 Music
Perhaps it only works after you've seen the movie, but for me some of these tracks are a reminder that after all that's been done, forgiveness is still possible. How can some music do this?? Very sweet. A haunting combination of Indian and Western tonalities and instruments, blending perfectly with the movie theme.
