Nine Months

In Nine Months, Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer follows the humorous road that a confirmed bachelor (Hugh Grant) takes to unexpected fatherhood. No movie could better reflect Zimmer’s own emotional passage during the birth of his daughter, Zoe, nine months of anguish and exuberance that have moved Zimmer to write his most deeply felt score. Breaking new ground in his use of warm orchestral colors, Hans Zimmer’s poignant soundtrack to Nine Months continues to show the versatility that’s made him one of Hollywood’s top composers.
