4.0 out of 5 stars "Rolfe Kent's score is intoxicating:, October 20, 2000

Having scored only one other film - "The Theory of Flight" (1999), must give this composer his do, "Nurse Betty" (2000) is an outstanding piece of composition. The pure thematic structure is near perfect...only a few composers have this ability, and they are either in the top five or no longer with us today. The score appears on track eight, through twenty-one, and is a delight, so refreshing with everything you could hope for...orchestration by Tony Blondal is breath-taking.

From the past pop tunes..."SLOWLY" (Ann-Margret)..."DON'T YOU KNOW" (Della Reese)..."POOR LITTLE FOOL" (Ricky Nelson)..."CATTLE CALL" (Eddy Arnold)..."I WON'T BE HOME NO MORE" (Hank Williams)...and two renditions of Doris Day's big hit that won an Academy Award for Best Song "QUE SERA, SERA(WHATEVER WILL BE, WILL BE)" performed first by Pink Martini, later by Julia De Palma, nice touch.

But, the real highlight of this album is Rolfe Kent's score...looking forward to more from this young composer!

4.0 out of 5 stars A great masterpiece..., April 28, 2001

Nurse Betty has a great original soundtrack to it composed by Rolfe Kent. The "oldies" songs on the beginning of the cd I didn't care for too much, but the 2 versions of Que, Sera, Sera were great. Something I noticed though is that track 7, the version sung by Jula de Palma, has a "slow" sound to it compared to where it is played at the ending credits of the movie. It appears to be playing at the same speed but has a lower-pitch sound to it. Maybe this was the original and they sped it up for the movie. I personally like the faster sound better. From track 8 to the end of the CD is the wonderful music composed by Rolfe Kent. It fits the movie so well and has an "innocent" feel to it which goes very well with Betty. There are a few songs that I noticed were not on here, the song which is played when Betty goes to the bar with Rosa which is found in the trailer and also the spanish song in the trailer and in the background of Charlie's hotel room. Del's record wasn't on there either. Other than that, I believe every other song is on here.
