Girl with a Pearl Earring
"Girl with a Pearl Earring" was Deplat's breakout score in Hollywood, despite it being his 50th production as composer. Desplat had contributed musical scores to primarily French films since the early 1990s but his score for "Girl with a Pearl Earring" raised his international profile, leading to a prominent career composing major films such as "The King's Speech" (2010), "Godzilla" (2014), and "The Grand Budapest Hotel" (2014). The album was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score and the BAFTA Award for Best Film Music.
