Working with him has been a dream,” adds Greta Gerwig of working with Desplat on the score. “From the first sketches he sent me to listening to him record the glorious score with an orchestra in New York, every step of the process has been a joy. He has taught me how to work with a composer: how to listen, how to give notes, how to wait for it to develop, how to step away, how to dive in. I am a better filmmaker for having worked with him, and I sincerely hope that it is not the last time.” Little Women explores the lives of the March sisters in 1860s New England in the aftermath of the American Civil War. The prolific composer Alexandre Desplat, who has an incredible number of high-profile projects under his belt, composed the music for the movie. Overall, Desplat currently has 10 Oscar nominations in his career, with two wins (“The Shape of Water” and “The Grand Budapest Hotel”). As some has stated his musical score is undoubtedly one of the best compositions of the year. Plus, it’s dishwasher safe (although hand-washing with occasional dishwasher use will get you the most life out of the design). This mug is sure to be a hit with any coffee-loving Little Women fan you know! When looking for gifts for Little Women fans, a beautiful copy of the book—like this Little Women exclusive book cover—is a great idea!

The way they dance — they don’t dance like they would be in a period movie with every moment tailored like it’s 1867. [Gerwig] took the challenge of making them dance differently and have fun and be excited like kids nowadays would dance if they were 15 or 13. There’s a youth about Mozart, because we know Mozart was a child all his life, and for Bowie, there’s something extravagant about him that we see in their characters — they want to be different, they all want to be artists."
