Just saw the indie film Wild Target. It is spectacular, for those of us who like that sort of thing. It is a combination of Little Miss Sunshine, The Lady Vanishes, and 39 Steps, and also happens to include nearly all of my favourite English actors and actresses.
The soundtrack was a perfect mix of folksy alternatives and French music (performed by the London Philharmonic, no less!) The opening title track has a theremin, which I've become quite good at identifying thanks to its distinctive use in Midsomer Murders.
