English artist Louis Wain rises to prominence at the end of the 19th century for his surreal cat paintings that seemed to reflect his declining sanity.
Patrick Cremona, Radio Times
‘credit must also go to Arthur Sharpe’s terrific score’
Jeanine T. Abraham, Black Girl Nerds
‘The soundtrack is perfect… The music is an additional character in the movie.’
Sheena Scott, Forbes
‘Sharpe’s beautiful soundtrack also adds to this sense of otherworldliness the film instils. The music of the film perfectly captures the mood, a little strange, whimsical and full of pathos.’
Hasitha Fernando, Flickering Myth
‘a bittersweet, poignant score that is equal parts traditional and unconventional. The ideal companion piece to this touching idiosyncratic story.’
Edith Bowman, Soundtracking
‘Electricity… such a beautiful piece of music’
Amon Warmann, Empire
‘Sharpe’s theremin-heavy score is especially delightful’
Lewis Knight, The Mirror
‘the melancholic yet almost alien-like score from Arthur Sharpe’
