A Dog And His Robot

November 5, 2021

Soundtrack Released for Tom Hanks’ apocalyptic sci-fi drama FINCH – Music by Gustavo Santaolalla

Lakeshore Records has released the soundtrack to Tom Hank’s new movie, FINCH. The film takes place in a post-apocalyptic earth wherein an aging character named Finch Weinberg has built a special robot companion to take care of his beloved dog once he’s gone. Finch’s interactions and experiences with the robot he created may make him a mechanical-plus AI version of a real boy.

The original music to the Apple Original Film is by Gustavo Santaolalla (EL CID [TV], NARCOS: MEXICO [TV],  BEFORE THE FLOOD, WILD TALES, BABEL, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN). The score album is available now digitally on Apple Music and all major music services worldwide – see here. 

Listen to Santaolalla’s theme from FINCH:
