Congratulations to Boyhood, which received the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Film of the Year, Best Director for Richard Linklater, and Best Supporting Actress for Patricia Arquette earlier this week. Also this week, the film, which was written, directed, and co-produced by Linklater, received the Gotham Independent Film Audience Award and was named among the Top Films of the Year by the National Board of Review (which also awarded Paul Thomas Anderson with Best Adapted Screenplay for Inherent Vice).

Shot over 12 years with the same cast, Boyhood is a groundbreaking story of growing up as seen through the eyes of a child named Mason (Coltrane), who literally grows up on screen before the viewers’ eyes. The New York Times film critic A.O. Scott called Boyhood "one of the most extraordinary movies of 2014, or for that matter the 21st century so far."

Nonesuch Records released the Boyhood soundtrack, which spans the story's 12 years, with songs ranging from the year 2000 (Coldplay's "Yellow") to 2013 (Yo La Tengo's "I’ll Be Around"). The album also includes the classic "Band on the Run," by Paul McCartney and Wings, and a new song by Jeff Tweedy's father/son duo Tweedy, "Summer Noon." To pick up a copy of the soundtrack, head to iTunes or the Nonesuch Store, where the album is now 15% off as part of the ongoing Nonesuch Store anniversary sale and CD orders includes a download of the complete album at checkout.

    "One of my favorite music labels has a momentous birthday: Nonesuch Records is turning 60 this year," says Deepa Fernandes, co-host of NPR's Here & Now, who spoke with Nonesuch President David Bither to mark the occasion. "Nonesuch has likely influenced your musical diet even if you didn't know it." "It's very hard to say what is a Nonesuch record," Bither says. "It's not a particular genre, but maybe it represents a particular kind of ambition and originality. There's a passionate audience for the music we've tried to champion." You can hear their conversation and several musical selections from over the years here.
