Eliza Dushku

I’ve just finished co-composing the score for NOBEL SON with producer and re-mix artist Paul Oakenfold.

The result of our collaboration is an edgy track combining techno/electronica grooves and agitato strings. Alan Rickman plays researcher Eli, who wins the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. His trip to Stockholm with wife Sarah (Mary Steenburgen) is cut short when his son Barkley (Bryan Greenburg) is kidnapped and held for ransom by Thaddeus (Shawn Hatosy). Thaddeus reveals himself to be Eli’s illegitimate son, who now wants to displace Barkley as Eli’s "genuine" son. The two brothers start a fight that involves not only money but also Barkley’s girlfriend, City Hall (Eliza Dushku). Danny Devito plays an eccentric neighbor and Bill Pullman is the detective trying to get to the bottom of it all. This is my fourth collaboration with director Randall Miller, who co-wrote the script with his wife Jody Savin. Watch for a theatrical release this fall.
