Catch: Jai Ho Rahman's magical 127 Hours

 
He never fails to disarm with his matter of fact manner. AR Rahman has a Golden Globe nomination, is possibly well on his way to another Oscar and knows it too.

But when he talks about scoring the music for Danny Boyle's 127 Hours, there are no flighty explanations of how creative highs were reached in moments of otherworldliness. Rahman talks about working close to the director's vision and being guided in the right direction.

I write this with R.I.P from the film playing along and at this point I do not think I have heard anything in recent times quite as magnificent. Danny Boyle sure seems to do a great job of guiding Rahman in the right direction though unlike the shy, self-effacing magician, I'd like to credit much of it to sheer genius.
