Stardust (2007) is a fantasy adventure film directed by Matthew Vaughn, based on Neil Gaiman's novel of the same name. The story follows Tristan Thorn, a young man who ventures into a magical realm to retrieve a fallen star for his beloved, only to discover that the star is actually a woman named Yvaine. As Tristan and Yvaine navigate a world of witches, pirates, and other fantastical creatures, they confront powerful forces vying for the star’s power. The film combines humor, romance, and a sense of wonder, with an ensemble cast including Claire Danes, Charlie Cox, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Robert De Niro. Its imaginative storytelling and whimsical atmosphere have earned it a beloved place in modern fantasy cinema.
The Stardust soundtrack, composed by Ilan Eshkeri, complements the film’s enchanting narrative with a sweeping orchestral score that blends romantic melodies with adventurous themes. Eshkeri’s use of strings and brass captures the film’s whimsical nature while evoking the grandeur of its magical setting. Notable tracks like "Tristan" and "Shooting Star" highlight the film’s emotional core, while pieces like "Lamia’s Inn" build tension and excitement. The score's dynamic range and thematic richness elevate the film’s sense of wonder and charm, making it an integral part of Stardust's enduring appeal.
