Mr. Nobody is a film score by Belgian musician Pierre Van Dormael, released on January 26, 2010 in Belgium, accompanying the 2009 film of the same name, directed by Jaco Van Dormael and starring Jared Leto, Sarah Polley, Diane Kruger, and Linh Dan Pham. Mr. Nobody is the last film of composer Pierre Van Dormael before his death in 2008.[1]

Background

Like Jaco Van Dormael's previous films, the score for Mr. Nobody was written by Pierre Van Dormael. The director did not want the music to be overtly emotional, so he and Pierre chose a minimalist orchestration, more often than not just a single guitar.[2] The score was finished after Pierre was diagnosed with terminal cancer.

At the 1st Magritte Awards, the film received six awards and Pierre Van Dormael won Best Original Score posthumously.[3]
