Music from the motion picture Curiosity Kills the Cat (released 2007) – music by Daniel Walker.
The film received wide acclaim in China and a best actress honor for Hong-Kong star Carina Lau. Directed by Zhang Yibai and starring Carina Lau, Hu Jun, Liao Fan, Song Jia and Lin Yuan – the story delves into the lives of a privileged married couple (portrayed by Carina Lau and Hu Jun) and a young woman who is romantically involved with the husband (portrayed by Song Jia), in which events ultimately take a tragic turn. The film is notable by it’s structure and treatment of time – the story is repeated in four segments from the perspectives of the main characters, and two key outsiders. Each repetition of the events provides a bit more information until the full story is revealed in the final segment.
The music was recorded in Beijing with members of the Central Ballet Orchestra performing the score and singing star Jia-Jia performing the song Between the Earth and Sky.
