Contents

The piece "Convergence" was used in the 2007 film There Will Be Blood, in addition to new material composed by Greenwood especially for the film. The inclusion of the track, along with excerpts of another Greenwood piece, "Popcorn Superhet Receiver", disqualified Greenwood's score from contention at the 2008 Academy Awards, as Academy rules specify that "scores diluted by the use of tracked themes or other pre-existing music" are not eligible for nomination.
