Entertainment One to Release STAN & OLLIE ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

Entertainment One (eOne) announces the digital release of Stan & Ollie Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, featuring an original score by Rolfe Kent, on March 29, 2019, the same week as the VOD, DVD and Blu Ray release of the film. The preorder for the soundtrack is available now at all major digital retailers.

Composer Rolfe Kent is best known for his scores for Sideways, for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe, Up in the Air, Election, Thank you for Smoking, Legally Blonde and the 2017 film Downsizing, among numerous others. He also composed the theme song to the Showtime Original Series Dexter, for which he was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Main Title Theme Music.

Stan & Ollie was directed by Jon S. Baird and stars John C. Reilly, Steve Coogan, Shirley Henderson, and Nina Arianda. Reilly was nominated for a Golden Glove for his portrayal of Hardy.

Kent says, "It's rare to be asked to compose something that really tells a story in music, and very rare these days to have a director bold enough to embrace melody and emotion in their score. This score was my best attempt to climb the mountain that Baird, Reilly and Coogan set before me. And it was a blast to do!"

Laurel & Hardy, the world's favorite comedy double act, set out on a variety hall tour of Britain in 1953. Diminished by age and with their golden era as The Kings Of Hollywood comedy now behind them, they face an uncertain future. As they start crisscrossing the country, attendances are disappointingly low. But they've always been able to make each other laugh and as the charm and beauty of their performances shines through their audiences laugh too, and they re-connect with legions of adoring fans, old and new.

The tour becomes a hit, but Stan & Ollie can't quite shake the specter of Laurel and Hardy's past; and long buried ghosts, coupled with Oliver's failing health, start to threaten their precious partnership. A portrait of the most tender and poignant of creative marriages begins to unfold as the duo, aware that they may be approaching their swan song, try to rediscover just how much they mean to each other.
