Wendy Ide of The Guardian wrote "The film's soundtrack, however, is less successful. The score, by Alexandre Desplat, is a bustling, busy orchestral mulch, so generic that it might as well have been pulled out of a drawer marked "prestige period pieces". When so much elsewhere in the picture makes such an effort to tap into the distinctive and highly unusual character of Lee Miller, the music choices feel throwaway and thoughtless in comparison." [7] But, in another review for the Screen International , she called it an "earnest score". [8] Carlos Aguilar of Variety wrote "Alexandre Desplat's score does its part in helping build an atmosphere both poignant and propulsive (particularly on the battlefield) to hold as much of who Lee was as possible." [9]
James Southall of Movie Wave wrote "The moments of light that shine through in the score are all the lighter because of the more challenging material that surrounds them and I think it's a skilful and cerebral effort from one of the finest film composers around." [10] Caryn James of BBC wrote "Alexandre Desplat's score matches that [dramatic] style, with a subtle, piercing beauty." [11] Kate Stables of GamesRadar+ wrote "Alexandre Desplat's lush score hints at [Lee's] despair." [12] Richard Roeper of Chicago Sun-Times wrote "the prolific and much-honored composer Alexandre Desplat provid[es] a suitably stirring score". [13] Alex Maidy of JoBlo.com called it a "beautiful score". [14]
