Details: Amazon.ca Even among film soundtracks, which can be eclectic to a fault, what a cheerfully demented hodgepodge this is! Liza Richardson, from LA's taste-making KCRW radio station, has pieced together a saucy juxtaposition of satirical and salacious Anglo and Latin tracks, a perfect sonic commentary for the sexy, Golden-Globe-nominated film. Her range is astonishing, moving from Eagle Eye Cherry's bizarre yet touching version of the Bee Gees' "To Love Somebody" to a hilarious, lounge-lizard take on Kraftwerk's "Showroom Dummies" by Señor Coconut. Cafe Tacuba, sounding like Spanish-language androids of the Fifth Dimension, make the scene with "Insomnio," while Bran Van 3000 is haunted by early Pink Floyd on "Go Shopping." Believe it or not, it gets weirder, as Natalie Imbruglia, Falco Jiménez, Molotov vs. Dub Pistols, Frank Zappa, Brian Eno, Marco Antonio Solís, and La Revolución de Emiliano Zapata are heard from--and how! --Christina Roden
