Listen to the Mica Levi‘s opening musical passage in Jackie. It’s the first thing you hear as the film begins, and it sinks right into your soul. It sets the tone for the whole film. I think it’s a more vital element than Natalie Portman‘s justly-praised performance. Listen and you’ll understand why an Oscar win is probable. Prior to Jackie Levi was best known for her soundtrack to Jonathan Glazer‘s Under The Skin. She’s probably best known in musical realm for her band, Micachu and the Shapes, and their album Good Sad Happy Bad. Born on 2.28.87, Levi is only a year and a half older than Jett.
