Film Soundtracks
In 2010, Cardiff and Leggett re-recorded Cardiff’s song Barney and Miriam, a tribute to the Mordecai Richler novel Barney’s Version that had previously been released on Ginger’s on Barrington Street with Rose Cousins in 2003, during sessions for the album Floods and Fires. The song was featured in the Canadian comedy-drama Barney’s Version.
More recently, Cardiff’s work was featured in the soundtrack for an independent Canadian film that was named Audience Choice Best Feature at the Cinéfest Sudbury International Film Festival in September 2012. Cardiff teamed up with Leggett once again to compose the soundtrack for In Return, a dark romantic comedy written and directed by Chris Dymond. The film features original compositions by Cardiff and Leggett, Cardiff’s songs from Floods and Fires, and songs by Ontario bands The Famly and Faraway Neighbours.

Famous quotes containing the word film:
“Television does not dominate or insist, as movies do. It is not sensational, but taken for granted. Insistence would destroy it, for its message is so dire that it relies on being the background drone that counters silence. For most of us, it is something turned on and off as we would the light. It is a service, not a luxury or a thing of choice.”
—David Thomson, U.S. film historian. America in the Dark: The Impact of Hollywood Films on American Culture, ch. 8, William Morrow (1977)
